I repaired the washer that goes on the end of the generator. I welded a SAE flat washer on centered over the original hole and then filled in the slot. The threaded shaft is just the right length to put a new lock nut on it. With the added thickness of the extra washer, the shaft comes out flush with the end of the nut. Afterwards taking care of the generator, I assembled the starter. Now both the starter and generator are ready to bolt back in after I get the oil line taken care of.
I was riding my bicycle down the lane to get the mail yesterday and saw this pro-street rig pull into the tavern. I asked the guy if I could take a look at it and he said sure, just watch the bicycle. I'm not sure what engine is in it but I would guess it's a 426 wedge. It has all the goodies - Demon carb, aluminum heads, Mallory ignition, and some big-ass tires under the rear end. I'm guessing it was just put back together after painting. No hood, trim or door handle on the passenger side. Sweet looking and sounding.
