I thought I would wrap this one up this morning and put it up front but noooooooo.
It ran perfect with no leaks before I started on the restore but when I put gas in it and fired it up today the carb fuel bowl leaked like crazy. When it came apart the bowl gasket was completely rotten and fell out in pieces. I shouldn't have said I'm running out of things to do... Anyway,,, carb will be here Thursday or Friday and we'll try this again.

I found a good temporary decal for the steering wheel, the new carb is on, and she's running once again. Maybe this one will get wrapped up on Monday if things don't get to busy...

Thanks GT.
There's not a lot of options that are conservative but it looks ok on there without being to obnoxious lol.

Another tricycle is wrapped up and up front. I don't know how long it will stay there but it's nice to see something nice there again when peeps first walk in. :smile2
The main welding bench looks weird now but it's sure nice to have it back too.
I'll get it outside for some glamour shots when the grass gets growing and looking better.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.
