Windy Update-1950 Reburbish

[rleggitt]

Hi ALL,

Just picked up the sheet metal that goes on "WINDY" my first refurbish
attempt today.

I think it looks R-E-D and lots of it.

Windy is one of the 1950's that I am currently working on and hope to
get to bring to CUBARAMA IN Mo. in Sept.

I am still working on de-rusting the castings and wheels. The transmission, final drives, engine, radiator base, and wheel hubs all have been rebuild from the ground up or replaced entirely. In fact I told the
parts man at IH [still refuse use Cxxx] if it rolls, slides, or seals we will
replace it. Just like someone on here has said, "the 3 most expensive
words are, may as well".

Windy will also be decked out with four new tires.

Hey Donny..I have been meaning to ask you...What is 501 Club.

Glad your move went smooth.

"Windy is one of the 1950's that I am currently working on and hope to get to bring to CUBARAMA IN Mo. in Sept"

Russ, the above statement should read:

"Windy is one of the 1950's that I am currently working on and will be bringing to the CUBARAMA in Mo. in Sept."

Mike,

Dennis put that Avatar up I believe because I have 501 posts. I hope he keeps it there for awhile...I like the way it looks.

The move went fairly smooth but there were some hariy moments. When I get some time I will embarass myself with the details.
