What kept me out of trouble this week!!!

Recommended Posts

I bought this several years ago, and just shoved it back in the corner, saying it would be my next project. Well, there have been several since then, but this is the year to get-er-done!
   It was purchased from the original owners son who had attempted to make it electric start. Fortunately he didn't cut anything and only made a few holes.
 I have since removed all the additions and tried in vain to make it run with the tilliston  carb.
  So I installed a carter and borrowed a part from one of those green ones, and now have a good runner with air cleaner. Seat if funky like most and the like most the hood needs a little work a the bottom front.
 I did remove all the steering linkages, and replaced the fan gear which had a tooth missing, it had also been broken at the roll pin. Removed all the parts cleaned, everything applied locktite and new roll pins, steering now is as new.
 I do not intend to paint it, just a little more cleaning and maybe a seat along with repairs to the hood.
Almost forgot, as it has the two piece tank, that had been welded to make the leaks go away, the tank looked nothing short of awful, so I replaced the it too.
Enjoy. David:D

Looks like a nice one. Just so I don't have to turn my monitor on it's side each time I look at it, I will rotate your image here.

However, if you click on your image, it rotates correctly. Go figure.

Thanks to all for the kind remarks and especially to Bob Maynard for rotating the picture for me.
 For those few that might not know this is a 633. I really wanted it to go with the tilloston carb, but it just would not happen. I will be watching for a carb and if I find one it will go on.:)
Except to be used, I don't think this little baby has ever spent any time out side, it came out of a basement in SW Ohio.
