And since i am thought to be a project hound, i'll go through what's on the plate right now.
Suzuki GS1000 i bought to part out. Paid $400 and made several times that on the stuff sold. Still have the chassis and lots of parts left.
96 KTM Lc4 400. Bought this non-running, got it running, then the stator died. Common problem on these. Been working to revise the charging and starting system, wanted to design a chain drive electric starter, but found a cheap stator and will probably just put it back together and ride it.
Suzuki GS850. My main street bike. Blew the base gasket last year, haven't had time to touch it. Painted everything while apart, seat is getting a cover made. A good bike, but not real fast. I want to sell and buy a 1st gen Vmax.
67 Fairlane convertible. Bought in Plano, dragged it 1000 miles behind the 86. Bought because it's intact minus powertrain, and factory AC car. Very rare.
Bridgeport mill. Series 1, variable speed head, bought from a shop in Wixom, $400. Complete with DRO, but no scales, in really good shape. 42" table.
Head needs a couple parts. Seller told me to let him know what i needed, he would replace no charge. I didn't have the heart to follow up at this price.
1920s Crescent 24" planer. Beautiful machine, replaces my 11" Yager.
Beach 1" spindle shaper, and to the right, a 16" Rockwell RAS frame. It's parts are scattered about. I needed to disassemble it to get it into the shop. Probably acquired at the worst of the clutter.
This shows the tops for the shaper and the jointer.
67 Fairlane coupe. Owned this since i was 16. My first car. Restored once about 28 years ago, 351W, J302 heads, torquer 2, toploader, 9". VERY fast car.
Oil boiler used for heat.
Runs the infloor tubing. Waste oil conversion, but it doesn't work right, boiler is too shallow.
Waste oil filtering setup i built. Works great, but WVO is way too hard to get these days, will probably scrap it and just go waste motor oil exclusive.
The $150 air compressor, 1960's Curtis 10HP, D97 pump, what started the whole 50HP phase converter project.
Had leaky disc valves, and sloppy primary piston. I'm working on it occasionally.
NP205 onto a diesel ZF5 transmission. I've been playing with this idea for a while, in search of truly bulletproof but retaining mileage. The IDI diesels really don't like RPMS too much. I have some ideas for fixing the cracking tailshaft problem that's common on these that may be patentable.
My little guy's XR250R that needs a tuneup.
the yanmar GT14 diesel lawnmower that i bought for $850 that needs the crankshaft nose straightened. It tossed the PTO driveshaft before i bought it, and i didn't catch it before purchase. Inspect your stuff !
97 F250 PSD, bought with bad flexplate for $1500, and ended up ruining the ****** due to bad circumstances (long story)
Picked up a E4OD to fix for $300.
8' Boss Vplow, purchased with problems for $400, currently working on fixing, probably won't put it on the F250, planning to fix up the F250 as best as possible, and purchase a F350 CC PSD somewhere in Texas and 4wd conversion. have a D60 already.
There's probably others i'm forgetting. But that should entertain for now... LOL.
