Hi G-Man; Yes, *I* know that - I just don't think the PO did. I already have it upside down on my engine stand, waiting for me.

This thing hasn't run in God knows how long. It's a '63 I believe, and the guy I got it from had it in what looked like a run-in shed - you know, tucked in under an outdoor overhang - but except for this pesky piston thing the insides look really good; everything's still shiny, the bolts for the most part still look new when I took them out, etc. The tank especially is Really nice inside; it's mostly shiny, with just a little munge right under the cap.

We'll see; it's not like I don't have a garage full of projects out there already. I just don't like having a stuck engine around, especially when I know I have to break it down anyway.

But I will advise when I finally crack that nut - and I will.
