Yea thats a beauty. Though I have to admit, I actually do like finding “surprises” under the flywheel when I get a good deal. A $60 pair of coils actually sweetens up the deal, especially, when I just got the motor for $40. 😀
My son Kevin found and we picked up a "Free" 1953 Fastwin on Craigslist last year. It came in 4 boxes, and most had been left outside behind the shed for a year or two. What a mess. It did come with 4 new coils!!! Al Lockhart was generous enough to send Kevin a replacement powerhead as this one was toast. several parts needed welding, and some stray parts needed to be rounded up, but it was a great project for him. He has yet to paint it, but everything is now complete, and I still had 2 extra new coils for our Fleetwin
