The SFC is officially on the table for re-assembly! got all of the parts sorted except for one. Cannot find the z shaped bracket that holds the regulator! I guess I ate it! LOL! I hope it was good.... Anyway, the cases are in the background, in the process of getting soda blasted. That is a nasty, dirty process. Results look good however. Lots of TLC forthcoming, had to put the tank on it to get the juices going! I will keep y'all posted.

Howdy All,
The airplanes are mine, the C-150 is a go getter, the C-175 is in progress, new engine, stol kit, etc. The SFC frame is actually powder coated, but before everyone screams, it was done 25 years ago, because no one in the US would plate it with white cadmium, and I had access to a powder coater!!! It was an old race bike when I acquired it in 1980, and I rode the hound out of it until an old lady backed in to it in a bank parking lot! Fortunately, someone saw her and I was able to get some money from her insurance company, and thus started the "restoration saga" !!! Frame and engine are 17126, and I registered it with Marnix years ago! I only ever ran Avgas in it, so the tank is still good. Ran really well, but it will hopefully run better when I get it back to life.
