It looks pretty good mostly due to a repaint, in a nearly correct "original" maroonish color. But it is missing the Iconic fluted brass cylinder lagging cover plate, has a strange bolt sticking out of the top of the cylinder, improper modern bolts in the cylinder head, and I really didn't like the way it ran in the video at all, like too much pressure had to be used to get it to run, and very jerky at that. Time will tell what I'm actually getting here, so we shall see ..... I leave before dawn tomorrow, and plan to be in the depths of "The Pit" for pickup a little before noon.

It's probably been over thirty years since last I was in the greater Hell-A area, and many bad memories linger. I can only imagine that it is all that much worse now!
