De-stinking Penelope

[chuck hahn]

Getting anything done on the old girl Dale? Has been a while since we have seen any updates.

Little bump of encouragement to Dale. Looking forward to an update on this rig.

[chuck hahn]

I was gonna say that earlier Dale...but didnt...LOL

[rustybronco]

Then hurry up and get over here damik! I'll supply the beer and the wrenches, you already own the bike and the title is exactly where you left it.

Damn, I am so green with envy, I am starting to get withdrawal symptoms from not wreching in the garage..........

[rustybronco]

Thanks Ivor! I just need to get back to working on her soon. That will be after I get Stan's GK put back together and I get things in the garage all sorted. (Just got an 850 camshaft for it)

not sure how i missed this thread...
it's looking good rusty! ol' penelope's coming up nicely!

[chuck hahn]

From dales place, about 150 miles. Thats the bike i found from a guy that came up to me at the gas pump when i was on my 77 750. Some may recall the story. dale has some pics of her "RIPE" from the barn..LMAO. Talk about a rough bike!! I actually passed on it ( and i dont usually squirm from much ) but she looked way worse than anything I wanted to tackle!!!!

[rustybronco]

Then that will make three of us making the trip up north. You, me and Stan on his GK.

[chuck hahn]

I am holding to the [promise that when you get her done, we will ride together. I will start saving gas money to come to MI. I would like to ride up north to the guys (Joe) place and have him see the bike again. He will really be awestruck.

Straightened up the back room attached to the garage and built some additional shelving. Moved the Shelby from the barn at the Ex-wife's house to my driveway. Working on getting a new body for it so that will need an open spot in the garage to park them side by side. Today I'll be finishing up with the reassembly of Stans GS1100GK's cylinder head.

Soon Chuck... I'll be back on her very soon.

[chuck hahn]

New shed built, free ( more ) garage space, heater running??? Getting the ole girl along any lately Dale???

[chuck hahn]

Dale...Cabin ever will soon overtake you. You getting back into the swing with the bike yet? How ar along have you gotten with the engine?

Has been nearly 11 for my 2 herniated discs. I had an appointment for follow up results on my "other" medical things ( see my other thread for an update ) so yeah i get the pain and constant soreness your in. I was bent over and stretching in the chair when he came into the exam room today and he tought i was passing out. I explained i was exceptionally sore today and was trying to stretch a bit. I have much mjuch empathy for where your at my friend!!!!!

The hand is doing really well, but my back is the issue once again. I had a myleogram and a cat scan done this past Monday and I been taking so much pain med's lately my feet have been swelling up from all the water I've retained. I guess it's time I stopped putting off having the Doc work on it 'eh as it's been almost 4 years now.

I should have an update on the fuel tank this weekend if all goes well.
