Default Friday flatty fix: Pt 22. Studs in, heads on. Getting there!

Hello! It's time to drop in to Mart's garage. Getting dangerously close to actually being fully built up, I continue to add less than perfect parts to the Crusty Flathead. Somewhat repetitious, lots of speeded up parts in this one, but enjoyable work nonetheless. Mart.

A little late to the shop but as usual fun to watch. Thanks Mart.

Thanks for having us in the garage and sharing the build......I’m certain thousands of these engines were built the same as your doing with the same attitude.........”if what I’m doing doesn’t work......well then, I’ll just do something else till it does work”.....good for you!!!
Looking forward to the next video.......Mark

Thanks for the replies, fellas. Glad you're finding it interesting.

The final video for the build will be going out on Friday.

But never fear, There will be some more to come.

We have to deal with fitting it into a vehicle and going on a road test.

I don't want to give anything away but I can say that not everything happened like I expected it to.

Mart.
