I’ve been out of town (down in Melbourne) over the weekend, but Ren has kept my project moving by finalising paint preparation. He has also put the motor in for paint which is bloody brilliant. This week will involve polishing up some details on the freshly painted motor, and commencing the rebuild! I’m damn excited to get this motor back together and firing like the German Warhorse that she is. I’ll most certainly be posting photos of the painted motor and various summaries relating to the motor build throughout the week.
