A shop in my town has a T500 for sale. Hasn't moved because most people know nothing about 2 strokes.

True Dat!
Nice get with the T500 too

Picked these CB400F rearsets up from Carnivorous Chicken...

The plan is to fit them to my CB750K. I did a quick fitment check with the '75-'76 400F rearsets we put on my Bros '77 400F, so I know they'll bolt on. But will require some modification to operate properly. Mainly due to the extended width of the 750 engine. Updates will follow in my CB750K thread

Double thanks guys

Look at the inside of this tank though

The whole bike confuses the shit out of me
Half of it is like showroom brand new looking
And the other half looks like it has 80k miles instead of 8k thats on the meter

I bought an interesting electronic tachometer at a swap meet yesterday.

 

[CarbsAndCylinders]

Interesting, do you have any idea of what machine it came off of?

 

[Brodie]

Nope. Best bet is an old generator or tractor. I am still working out the wiring. Earth and illumination were easy, I am assuming red is power and white is signal but have not tested it.

Never seen a cement truck that pours out the front before, must make it easier to place?

Footing going in there?

 

[J-Rod10]

Very much so. Chute was 20' long, swings around 180° as well. Had two trucks in and out in 2:15 for the footer. Now, round about 1,500 blocks to lay.

 

[sav0r]

At least somebody around here is getting laid.

I'll see myself out.

Rad. I love that Windsor motor. I had a Galaxie 500 with the Windsor. Wonderful truck, aside from the Gas Monkey sticker. WTF?

 

[CarbsAndCylinders]

The Windsor was also the best for an engine swap into a small car, due to it's light weight, like into a little Spitfire or Opel GT.

I kinda like the Gas Monkey

So do I, old Richard is the ducks guts. He drinks beer, buys cars when he's drunk then loses money on them - he's just like the rest of us.

 

[grandpaul]

Very nifty truck.

I'm trying to sell my '60 Century Resorter 16' dual cockpit runabout, it's been in the sun way too long. HOWEVER, it has a VERY nice, low hours 292 V8 with Mallory dual point distributor and Holley 600 carb that could drop right into any RWD Ford vehicle and most any other with some engine mount adapters, and is ready to haul butt.

I'll pull it and crate it for shipping if I get a reasonable offer...

 

[SONICJK]

Sweet truck!

I'm with Irk on the sticker though, unless they built it it doesn't need their sticker (just IMO of course).

As for Richard, I can't stand the guy. Sure he's entertaining to watch but the man doesn't have a skill in his body other than using a hairdryer and hair gel.

 

[Hurco550]

I don't much care for Richard on that show, but I do like the show in general, in that it SEEMS to have much less of the blatantly staged drama that was started by the likes of OCC and similar shows. And, what is staged IS blatant and for comedy purposes. Im sure some of the deadlines aren't as tight as they claim ect, ect, but as a whole its not quite as much of a jersey shore-esque "reality" show style.

I remember a while back, they flipped a truck for a good profit and Richard said "man, if I could make deals like that everyday, I wouldn't even need a T.V. show"

Not many producers will allow the show to be portrayed in that light, but I like that it is.
