DEUTSCHE KAFER KLUB (DKK): March 2009

3/28/2009

Well, we think we have a suitable donor for Ellodee's Raby type IV.

Jeff, Ryan and I went to Aubrey's today and picked up a FI non running bus motor. It seems to be in fairly good shape. The only problem evident at this time is a dented area inside the block from a thrown rod. The motor was previously rebuilt, but it looks like it was a poor job.

Here are the tear down pics. Thanks to Jeff and Ryan, It's ready for cleaning and inspection.

Aubrey's Sat and Mark's car

Mark, great news about the car. I sent Jeff a text today to see how everything was going.

As for Aubrey's, I had not planned on going. The Pres of Dixie Land Cruisers stopped in Moe's earlier this week to let me know they were cruising over there on Saturday Evening. I really should be there to greet them. You guys are welcome to join us.
