enkeivette came over last night and picked up the wiring harness which he managed to sell. Bit by bit we'll get some money together. Thanks Adam.

Went to the scrap yard today and got $150, thanks bird! This is literally exactly what we need for getting the bearing plate repaired.

No problemo. We need to see Hal, Pete at Tops, and maybe Terry Okuda for some free paint. I bet we could get some if your not too pickey about the color.

Actually, we've got a good hookup on paint, but at least the rad and gauages will be very beneficial. Hopefully we can work something out. First I want to get the blower back in working order, then the trans bits, then the rest of the engine stuff so it can be reassembled. At that point we'll have an engine/trans and I can turn attentiont to the rear, then suspension, wheels and tires. And finally complete the body paint interior, wiring.

We need to paint the engine bay before you install the engine, if you're going to cry about color matching the engine bay. Which I assume you will.

I don't cry, I demand. Probably there will be some test fits in an out a time or two before going to paint.

Picked up a bunch more scrap from bird today and sold the 13b + 5 speed. The guy we sold the motor was darned interesting. Retired engineer living mostly in the Philippines, he tinkers and adapts these rotaries for aviation use. We're going to get some pics and upload them for your viewing pleasure.
This is one of the things I really like about projects like this, you get to meet some interesting people while having fun.

I went by Chucks today. he still hasn't done the welding, since he is swamped. I suspect this week I'll get it to John, and see if he is up to the task.
