got some engine parts

[Bruce]

Kens on his way home with a few crates of engines in pieces.   Far as I can tell he got  alum blocks and cylinders and some iron ones...and most of the rest of the stuff. Maybe we can salvage an engine out of it all. I'll post pics in a bit

[Ricks]

If you get any single spark plug aluminum cylinders, let me know.

How much snow did you get?

We got about 10-12 inches so far, and it is still falling.

Sounds like you guys found a nice stash of parts .

We're here in balmy Long Beach . It's clear with a temperature of 37.5 °F . NO snow , thankfully . It's suppose to get all the way up to 45°F this afternoon .

I guess they weren't lying when they said it would be the coldest Winter in a long time .

[Ricks]

Yeah, where the Hell is Al Gore?  Oh, yeah, counting all the money he has made off global warming propaganda!!  LOL

[pd]

And , I'm sure he's staying nice and toasty warm doing it , too .

[Bruce]

heres a few

[Bruce]

Kens says theres two rods only and the pistons arent stuck and theres several spare pistons.   Maybe it'll make something

[admin]

That looks like a great score!  Where did you find it?

You don't see that many flywheels together any more, Nice find. If you find you don't need all those kick starters, let me know, I could use two of them.

[Bruce]

The guy selling the trailer in Florida had it all.. Ken stopped in and grabbed a few parts and this stuff... It wasn't expensive ,I think ken paid $200 for the pile.

[Ricks]

Did you guys buy the trailer?

[Bruce]

No....someone on eBay got it for $400 I believe....... We are gonna make one from the diagrams you guys put up here....should be able to get it close

[oil-lamp]

I hope y'all bought all the motor parts you could find. If not quick go back and get the rest of them we could always use extra motor parts.

[Bruce]

Yes....its all he had....he wasn't interested in vintage engine parts..I think the frames he has take the Hondas etc...he has 6 of those reproduction frames and forks.... Bought out someone.

. Are the kick starters all the same? There was one with the orig sportsman ken bought and a few in this pile I think...no matter what's done I think 2 is more then he'd use.
  Few things we are looking for still.....front fender and curved braces and hafta buy or copy a rear rack. Need one good tank too.
