That’s was a great swap meet find. How long did it take to take your bike from before to after?

That bike was pretty complete .
Just missing engine.
The cables were usable.
We just dropped in engine and 800 grit sand and spray.. Week and half.
That bike was a test dummy for the Briggs or Tecumseh 3hp comparison..
With its 3hp Briggs installed its had several hours now with no breakdown. .
