Here it is with the pipes installed.  Can you guess which one was repaired?  I guess you could say it’s “done”, although complete, or assembled is probably a better discription.

It was rusted through where the radiator shroud drips on it when it rains.  You can see the putting and holes in the first pics on page 5.  There was also an impressive mouse nest inside along with a dead mouse  :o

Oh no, what happened? Sled looks great BTW. Definitely a direction I'd like to go, eventually.

The stator has a bad pulser coil.  I tried to remove flywheel with motor still installed ended up cracking the case.

It runs!  Motor out, new stator installed and replaced the cracked flywheel housing, motor back in, timing set.  Whew, that was easy (sarcasm...)   :o

Now I just need to figure out what I did wrong with the mag side carb.  It's only running on one cylinder.   :(
