It has rained all night and most of the day and Ernesto hasn't even gotten here yet. But on days like this I get caught up on some rainy day jobs. No yardwork or gardening allowed so I have been mostly in the shop. The grease under my fingernails is from a 60-year-old scooter hub. I can't tell what is or isn't wrong with it until I get all of that crud off.
I am still working on an engine swap on my '47 Cushman, but I am in a holding pattern. I need to spray some paint on the engine before I bolt it in, and that has to be done outside. I don't spray paint when the humidity is high.
I sanded a bit of 1953 paint off my 60-series Cushman. Someday I am going to paint the whole body. It runs just fine, but looks baaaaaad.
I walked out to the scooter trailer between showers and took some measurement. I am getting ready to install a heavy board across the front inside, so I can have some place to tie down my scooters. The front of the trailer is rather flimsy, so it all has to attach to the floor.
If it keeps raining, it won't be long before I go into oversnack mode, and that ain't good. Howard
