You already have a very good looking derivable example that most would be happy with. Great work and thanks for the updates.

 

[Beep Beep Dave]

That's a good looking machine. I remember when it was listed on Kijiji. I am glad it found a good home.

Scorch had a play date with @Tobias74 and his 69 NY twin. Scorch was jealous but after a few new bits and pieces she settled down. Apparently new rad hoses will be the first fix this year....

Cool stuff

 

[Fratzog]

Two very nice looking rides. Please keep us posted as you make changes. Just get to the point it is reliable to drive and make the oil companies rich. My .02.

Can you imagine the sea of red had Bill come by as well?

Unfortunately that won't happen for awhile, my roof hydraulics blew out about a week ago. I was at the A&W show'n shine and it decided to down pour and the roof decided to stay down and I got to drive home in the rain. Got really wet!

I let it dry in the garage for a couple days and then pulled the rear seat bench and the back rest. Discovered a small lake of oil. Dumped in a bunch of kitty litter and left it a couple days to suck up all the oil which I have now vacuumed out. That floor will never rust!

I guess my next step is wipe everything, put some oil in the pump and run it to see where it's leaking. This will take awhile. my 75 year old back doesn't bend much anymore. Maybe I should just pick a nice day and run down to Idaho and let Paul do some more magic!


All this drama aside I would have loved to join the red parade!!
