"3 sisters" circa 1996, from plans found on the internet, when I first went on-line. The site is still up; http://npmccabe.tripod.com/3sisters.htm-Kevin
... it's like my picture of my old 65 beetle I had in high school. A nice reminder of my first time.
Yeah, they told us it couldn't be done, didn't they?
The 65 beetle was a 6V system.
Yes, a 6V system with the battery under the rear seat. I had a nice bit of flat iron that I used to prop the seat up when I was topping up the battery. Worked well until one day it slipped out of position and fell across the battery terminals. The resulting arc set fire to the raffia strings hanging from the underside of the seat. It was an interesting bit of contortion to extinguish the fire without igniting my hair.
I thought this thread was supposed to be about our first model engine....
Yes but model engines are sexy.. cars are transport, now motorcycles they count as sexy: is there anything more enjoyable than a hot slow revving single between you legs

Sexy ?????I suppose it's all in the eye of the beholder
OK Steve, since you started it let's set them straight. If you haven't felt a" stroked out" Harley,heard the whine of a blower, or felt the seat of the pants feel of a bad a$$ big block, well, you need to.Whiskey
