hello everyone..
.its snowing here and the water is covered in white.......i think it might ne a good day.
being in the drain business as i am ,i visit many people and see many things.
i come across sooo many things in peoples barnyards but i cant purchase them all.
but a few little trinkets do come my way.
in 2009 i found a 1972 vespa rally 180-italian model- and i use it today and its the super coolest thing out there.
but
2 weeks ago i was given -in parts- a 1959 ariel 650 huntmaster...and i wish to restore it.
coincidentally i found many parts on ebay that same week for it and i bought them all.
i want to over haul the motor now..
if you folks have any sources for this project i would be thankfull...
and if you wish i can post up notices everytime i find something in a barn/basement
be it bike or car... if i dont take it of course.....
cheers
Dee
