From CIP1 order received today -

Can't wait to get started!

First step is to thoroughly clean the case.

Next, I will need to find a place to pull the gear cluster off the crankshaft...

Progress and pics to come soon!

Actually it's not burned, its still has grime on it. I haven't put a brush to it yet, to clean it.

Since this is an old case, I am thinking of just rattle-can flat black, with suffice. What says y'all?

I assume the brass type of wire wheel would be best, considering the soft material?
