Not a lot to look at. After tearing it down 5 years ago, it takes some time piecing all the parts back together again. Almost done with the trans. Motor is rebuilt and ready to be painted. Still need to sandblas wheels and paint , maybe by next spring. Dave.

Like I told Fred-n-Pa, I have a lot of admiration for those capable of bringing the old, big fellows back to life!

I am still confident of this;
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27
