My brother bought this to my attention this morning. Still alive and kicking. https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/cto ... 87721.html

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
My windshield finally showed up. Ordered over 2 months ago and apparently made to order. Quality looks good.
Also just ordered some saddlebags and tool bag. Should be here next week. Once I get them mocked up I'll decide if I like them or not. Might have to keep hunting.
More updates coming...

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
Just sold the Neon to a father/son tweaker duo. Mixed emotions.

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
Are the mixed emotions from selling a car you put a lot of time and effort into to some tweakers who may trash it, or the fact that they now know where you live?

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
Also the fact that, from listening to those two idiots talk, the poor car probably won't live to see 2019.

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
I'm mostly over it.
On a brighter note, my Christmas present to myself just got delivered. The top of the door is taller than I am.
Now I finally have a secure place to store my spare Datsun parts.

I'd love to. Being held hostage by the inspector again. Seriously, fuck that guy.

Re: Escape From the Prison Planet
Two things...
Klever Lever "cruise control" for the Indian.
Also took a gamble on an old table saw. Near as I can tell it was made in 1949 or 1950. I like sturdy old tools. It needed a ton of clean up and adjustment. Degreased it, leveled all the extension wings, sanded it, ran a file over it, sanded it some more. I also had to build a fence for it. Thanks to the big cast iron top, it weighs a ton. Seems to run okay. Still need to glue my slide surface to the bottom of the fence and pick up a new blade before I put it to work. They really don't make 'em like this anymore.
