Reply:See there, some rusty compressors can be fixed. Well I guess not if you figure I made all new fenders. Next up the side covers. Took a frikkin week and a half to make my new (rebuilt) brake, and got fenders done in a day and a half.Brian LeonardAppalachian Ironworks L.L.C.434 Long Branch Rd, Marshall, NC 28753828 649 9966828 702 [email protected]

Reply:I'm not sure that counts as fixed as much as replaced... Nice job however..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth! Ronald Reagan

Reply:Mostly done with the rusty air compressor box rebuild.All that's left now is a hose basket made from expanded metal.All that orange would look good with a rebel flag painted across the top.Or better yet an American flag on one side cover and the C.S,A. battle flag on the other.Brian LeonardAppalachian Ironworks L.L.C.434 Long Branch Rd, Marshall, NC 28753828 649 9966828 702 [email protected]
Reply:Finally done.Only thing left is for them to pick it up and leave a check.I hated putting the hose box so high, but there's no other way to set it and leave enough room for maintenance.
