Terry,you're doing those BMW's good ![Smiley :)](http://forums.sohc4.net/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
What a nice thing to find a very good engine from the man's widow ?
not quite a widow yet, though from talking to the guy i think she'd like to be. he didn't even know she was selling his bike parts....
They weren't his bike parts either Spotty. She is selling them for another old guy who had them in his garage for years, but got moved into a nursing home so she emptied his garage, took it all to her place (where we collected it from) and is selling everything for him from her place, because the local drug addicts were breaking into his place and stealing everything. I'm not sure what her ex-husband's involvement is, but he wasn't in a good mood the first trip we did to their property to pick the engine up. I think he'd just decided that he owned it all.
I ordered a new oil/water pump shaft from England last night for the silver BMW, plus some exhaust gaskets and 2 new exhaust studs for the white BMW, as I'd forgotten to order them earlier. Another couple of weeks until those parts arrive, but in this weather not a biggie, it's just cold, wet and miserable for the next few days, although we're expecting a balmy 59 degrees on Sunday, so I might get a ride in, on something.
