 Topic: Model G Progress
Posted: 14 May 2011 at 8:11am |
Being I've had a very heavy workload since January, I haven't been able to "play" with the G that much. I have managed to glassbead a part here n' there while glassbeading customer's mags, carbs, and such to get a little more done. I started just before Christmas when I was on vacation with teardown. She's goin' back together slow, but gettin' there. Last week I got a few more pieces painted. I'm gaining on my work load finally, so hopefully I'll get the ole' girl back on her sneakers again soon.

Steve, did you rebuild your Ross steering box? It looks like the finish on one of your carbs.

Hey Steve, G looks great. You have too much time on your hands.
I just got my block back from being bored 40 thousands over, waiting for the new pistons to arrive. Bob

Thanks guys for the nice comments! I was hoping it would have been farther along by now, but, oh well, its been super busy at B&B and extra busy at the Power Co. with all the lousy weather we had through the Winter months. Larry, I went through the box to make sure things were okay in there. There was a lot of "muck" in it, so I tore it down, washed it out, glass beaded it and its components and re-assembled and sealed it. You're correct with your assumption on the box being the same color as my rebuilt carbs. Just kinda' broke up all the Orange with a little detail. Dave- I'm going to be bringing the engine down to Fred to rebuild soon. I just don't have the time to do it myself with all that's going on around here. My plans are to get the Tractor rolling again, and when Fred gets done with the engine, finish up the back end of it. Whoa Bob! Forty over! Big time HP there buddy! lol! I wish I had more time on my hands. I have a few more pics coming on an idea that I came up with for this project...
