Thanks Mark!  Hoping to receive the new valves this weekend so we can see where we are going to end up with that one....a little luck is a fine thing ;-)

Thanks Daniel - love to hear it.  That was a big reason why we started this channel - to demystify! 

I was surprised too Howard.  That thing was some kinda stuck!  That being said, I don't think the cam is any worse off for the wear.  I polished a few spots on lobes/bearing surfaces and I think it should work great.  Excited to start building the engine next week.

The rumored T84 video - like Sasquatch....rumored, never really seen....😂😜. The final drive rebuild is pretty cool.  We spent a fair amount of time with the brake setup (next video) and learned a ton.  We won't know how much we really learned until we drive the machine, but it looks right now and I am betting that she is going to steer very easily....

That is a new vocab word for me "hanyaukering"😜.  I am going to call - there are several gaskets that are unavailable for the Weasel and should be added to your product inventory.  Cheers my friend!

Yea buddy!

Are you implying that WW2 G503/related fuel gauges actually function? 😂. Murph's actually works...Grey Man....every once in a while it will swing wildly to remind me that it doesn't work 99.9% of the time.  Probably a ground issue too....

Appreciate the kind words Jay!  Drop those drums off - an excuse to build the extension and find an old brake lathe!  Made in America baby!

LOL!  Thanks for tolerating me Mark!  Appreciate all of your support😀
