I do have one now

Yep he built it with a home made brazer.. it had 2 electrodes on a handle you squeezed together... Dad taught me how to use it when I was a kid, I used it to work on my bikes.

Lol yeah it would be cool.. I told my brother I wish I had that one for wall art and a conversation piece..

Yeah Dad was a tinkerer... he grew up without a lot in a time you did what you could with what you had... He had a rear wiper on his car way before any manufacturer did..that was way before me but I remember him talking about it...I think it was a 40 Chevy..old vacuum operated wiper motor..

Thank you... Dad could do about anything with very little he had to work with...

I dont have much memory of it, mostly stories.. I just happened to find an old picture of it the other day..

I mostly remember it from stories, I was pretty young.. I do have better memories of a gokart he built with conduit tubing and a home made brazing machine..that old brazer built a lot of things..

Built from an old bicycle and random other parts, whatever he could find... think the engine might be a Clinton?

Thank you I'm glad you like it

Located in Toledo Ohio New, never used, not sure what the original application was, I was gonna use it on a trike. 1 inch axles 38" wide $100 plus ride or pick it up.

TTT $175

Needs cleaned up,very light surface rust, some 0000 steel wool and it's good to go.. Best I could measure journal is .998 $20 plus ship

Absolutely, alcohol kills fiberglass... when these tanks were made gasoline didn't have that crap in it so they lasted.

Tank arrived and is underway.. I cut the plate out, I'll drill the stud out and weld a new one to the plate.. I have to grind the bad areas down to clean glass and lay in new mat.. the tank looked as it must have leaked before so it will get cleaned out and sealed after the repairs are...

Thanks Ole, I appreciate that.
