One of the few bummers about Oregon...............The WHOLE rest of the conservative state is governed by a liberal urban base, that has no clue about the how the rest of Oregon works.

"That's OK, after we scare out the last jobs, we can have it for a hiking, bird watching, nature preserve".

You got the proper distributor then?..........still looking for your 3 groove pulley, since the yard crushed the rig that had one.

Yes, I got the right Dist, and have had the damn thing running. All my projects are on hold till after harvest. With working on the new shop and house I'll barely be moved before harvest, and I'm committed to that month for a good friend.

The 67 just needs the crank pulley and finish the exhaust. The 96 just needs the fuel system finished. I could do both in a day, but just can't find the day...................

Hopefully I'll be able to work full time on all of them after the first of Sept.............Sigh......

Those of us over here on the wet side that don't live in Portland or Eugene think that too.

Yeah, its a misconception thinking that W. Or is liberal, theres precious little love for the liberals outside of those 3 cities. Western Oregon rural folks are pretty sick of the libs too.

The new lights work great! I've had this container for over 10 years and never got around to installing the damn things. Got one side of the shelving in today and hope to get the 40' tire rack installed tomorrow. We must have over 150 tires and wheels.............
