ABE - does that stand for Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton? If so, I'm one exit north on the turn pike from there. I have no idea how to put a picture in this thread, so I opened an album with a couple of pics there. Look up "the ox".

 

If you want to post a picture from your album, click on that picture and scoll down, you have 2 options right click on the option img copy and paste.

 

Thanks John! It's a work in progress, simple really, all I need now is time and money!

 

I've posted a few new pictures of the F-8
Gotta figure out how to do that on the iPad.

 

Was that a battery disconnect in the floor where you plugged the hole?

 

No Abe is my name! I live in Lock Haven just off Interstate 80.

 

Oh! sorry, my bad. Some people use other names other than there own. Well, your not far from me anyway. I'm located near Lehighton, Pa. I figured I was wrong when I didn't receive a reply!

 

Yes, sort of. There was a 3 position rotary switch. An off position and then two connections for two separate batteries.

 

so what are your plans for the F8?

 

A few newer pictures...

Right now either a wooden rack body or a roll back, I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

 

I really just need to get it back together, just as soon as I can find the time and money!!
I'd like to drive it a bit. Make sure it's as good as I think it is...
