A little work on my 002. Freshly machined nose cone with thrust plate and new shift bushing/seal/hockey stick. Thanks Fred, for the excellent work.

We have a special addition to this thread…
Hops (from Germany!) for a special beer I'm brewing with my cousin…
And here we're testing the specific gravity, but it seems like my color match was a bit off. A darker orange malt recipe next time, I think…
Orange and white. Nice to look at. Better to taste. We're shooting for an orange-peel vanilla cream ale with a bright orange color. I feel like my inspiration for this one is obvious…

If you ever want to do a fresh hop beer, stop by my place in mid to late September. The weather is always great, you can hit the Yakima, WA VW show (excellent, always mid Sept.) and pick up all of the hops you care to haul from my backyard.
This is one of two bines I have.

Big Ballard helps to lubricate the shift linkage R&R process.

IMO, This is the first beer that Ghost River has made that is worth a dang. I was gonna be real upset that they used such a good name for it if it was crap, but i approve!
Anyone know about the Zippin Pippin?
One must have the proper lubricants when doing engine work!

I have always liked Summit's beer selection. I grab a few different sixers every time I visit the state-o-lakes.
Whereabouts are you in the motherland? _________________ nothing |

Oops....
After uploading the pic, I noticed it has splitties on the labels.
Still has cool graphics though. _________________ -Kent-

Ah, the green oil can! I keep a couple of those in the fridge just in case...
My bud in Ventura freezes those and takes 'em hiking. They hold up pretty good. |

Trying to find out what's wrong with my friend's Westie.
Only took a couple beers. Turns out the idle cut off had fallen out of the carb.

I like an easy fix. Leaves more time for beer. _________________ nothing |

Finally got around to trying out the Bus Depot rear screen. Every snap fit but one.
