Wondering , were you going to paint it this spring ?? or wait awhile ??
I only ask because I like your Before picture, it shows what you started with... with a done picture .. it is what I would like to put in my case calendar ... if you wait to paint it , maybe next year [ 2011 ]
Dead line for pictures for 2010 calendar is July 31.09
THANKS .. Mark

ps... it came a loong ways and LOOKS GREAT ..

I see on your before picture it has the dual fuel manifold. Did you use it or did you go with a gas manifold? I got one in between as far as condition but wish it was ready for paint like yours. Good job.

Mark, I should go back and look up the person who drug that VAC home and restored it so you could put that in a section of the calendar. He started with a lot less than this one. Did Don L. send you the picture of his tractor plowing? Love to see the old gal's in their work clothes.

Looks good although I see it has the wrong magneto. Definitely the right manifold for the 2 compartment gas tank.

Stayed with the original intake manifold. Seems to start and run very well. As for the mag....... it's been on there for 40 years. If it's been changed, it was done before my time.

Wasn't criticizing, merely making an observation.
