This dirtbike is finally taking shape! Only had one minor "oops" on it this time... easily fixed with a few minutes and a couple of bolts. This "restoration" has taken too long but I'm having so much fun! Excited to see my son take it for a ride this spring! I gave up on the plan to re-use the original top end. I found a complete top end kit on Amazon. And when I say complete, I mean it! It had the cylinder, piston, head, valves, cam, all the gaskets, and everything else! I unbox it here! Let me know what you think!

So my work space right now is less than ideal. As in, I have a basement workshop. And I want to paint. And paint stinks. And my wife has a really good nose... Enter the "gimmick" I've seen Tik Toks, reels, and videos on already... The home made air purifier! Super easy to make! If you already have a box fan, the filters should cost you less than $25!!! Does it work? Sure does!!!

Blast from the past- dug this one out of the archives! I apologize in advance for the filming and quality... But its funny. I've got a 1955 John Deere 60 tractor. It came with the house when I bought it, and the tractor hadn't run in a few years. It has an ANCIENT Farmhand front end loader on it. I had no clue what I was doing, but I got it started, and it seemed to run decent. Wanted to move it somewhere easier to work on so I tried lifting the bucket up, and it was working... until... Lets just say, WAIT FOR IT!!! #explosion #blowup #boom Check out my new shirts!!! https://www.teepublic.com/user/rusty-phoenix-motors Connect with me here! https://www.youtube.com/c/RustyPhoenixMotors https://www.facebook.com/rustyphoenixmotors https://www.instagram.com/dorkpunch_rustyphoenixmotors/?hl=en https://www.instructables.com/member/Rusty%20Phoenix%20Motors/ https://rusytphoenixmotors.blogspot.com/
