Fought with the husky weedwacker as noted in chainsaw thread. Got frustrated and moved to the Oliver. Great! No spark either from mag. Condenser is bad, coil windings are testing low imho but I don't have a spec as to what they should be. Gas tank is full of good brazing and bad epoxy repair. Chipped off the old epoxy. I have sealed many with jb weld as a quick repair in the past but on small tanks with less of a pressure head. I may braze. There is no carb so I will have to salvage something. Leak in rear diff. I don't think it leaked before I moved it but it was always on gravel so who knows? I may wish I parted it out!

I love Oliver but if I had a place to do one I'd do an old Ford 8N or maybe go red and do an International Harvester or whatever tickles my fancy at the time.

Every time I look at his shop I soon realize I'd need to retire and hire half a dozen guys to keep up with the projects.
A friend of mine has been building his dream shop for the past 3 years. Two full time workers plus crews as needed. Welding shop, wood shop, greenhouse, his and her offices plus parking for the toys. It has to be close to 8,000sq. By the time he finishes it he'll be too old to use it, but what the heck, he with the most toys wins, so why not.

Not to take anything away from plasticos' achievements, but I've really come to appreciate the "less is more" lifestyle myself. I'm sure plasticos will tell you it's not all sunshine and rainbows!

It is a fun place to work. Just as happy now as I was laying in the driveway. It does save me time, workin 80-120hrs doesn't leave much sanity
Also a ih fan, knappy. Here is my other project.(moving a small rock) I am redoing or cobbling together a better uc for it. I hope to rebush the idlers next weekend, or start!

Saw this on ebay today and it gave me an instant boner.
He's a little high on the price but he's local. I've been casually looking for one but it seems when they pop up they are basket cases and just too much work.
This is a disease! I don't have the room. Save from myself plastikosmd and purchase this before I do. You have the room.

Oooo
Love! Vintage. I'm kicking my only vintage bike down the road (430 wr husky)
I am a wimp now. This thing will kill me, if not outright, kicking the beast over with a left kick and no compression release. I hope to get a sawmill in partial trade. That Honda is sweet! Is that your white truck?

How much ya gonna ask for it? I really don't need it but ya never know lol. My uncle in CA has 83' cr 430, and a 84 wr 500 huskys. I've asked my mom to send him a Facebook message seeing if he wants to sell them. Rode the 430 when I was 12, narrowly avoided death by aiming it between a pickup truck and a tree. I've been on a wicked bender buying old bikes and wheelers. Here's a pic of my Xr.Oooo
