I like it, Bob.. You need more pictures, but so far it looks like a decent example.

Ducman82

what size shop is that?

Cool, and I see it lives with a relative! More pics please.

Probably a rear-muffler bypass. Something similar to this: http://www.928motorsports.com/parts/exhaustbypass.php


I like the look of early row-crop tractors.

ducman: 30 x 50, minimum to my needs. I have a two post assymetric Rotary lift
going in next year so these old bones don't have to creep under any more.
Back car is my first, '29 Ford tudor, bought in 1954. -Drove it too. I rebuilt the engine about ten years ago and replaced the tranny bearings. I do ALL my own work with the exception of crank turning and babbit pouring. Bug is a '62 with 43K original. It was a collision victim sitting in someone's garage. He gave it to me and I did all the bodywork (whole right side). Tractors are Minneapolis BF (Avery), Massey Harris 20 (first vehicle I ever drove), Allis Chalmers G.
All are works in progress that I suspect many of you will understand.
-Forgot to add: Kolb MkIII with Suzuki G10 engine now in there for the winter.

Nice! Where does it live in the summer? Do you have your own runway?

upstate bob

yes, 1200' grass, clear approaches. I flew the Kolb and drove the 928 about the same number of hours this year. three. -I get sidetracked. Likely due to a case of geriatric ADD.

Its in good company, Bob.

Say, check out Jim Doerr's #6.... its bedded down with tractors, too.

(Jim also owns #1)

whew! that's a l o n g thread. Time to give my eyeballs a break. First time I browsed on this thing I found good info, like removing the master/slave brake units together. -good stuff. If anyone is interested in
the oil control fix installation let me know.

Now that I think about it, you can't park the Kolb in there!

At least not until you ditch the Suzuki and put in a 1/2 VW. That would be much more fitting!

upstate bob

The 3 banger/4 stroke suzuki makes 60 hp. -just enough to make a 600 lb Kolb fly ok. I doubt a 1/2 VW
would get it off the ground. There are several Kolbs flying with 4 cyl VWs however.
Most of my 928 pix are on another computer. I'll post some when I get it hooked back up.

Fantastic assortment of both the fast and the slow.

Looking forward to more pics.
