Cool..

 when I bought my 06 Indian engine (most of one), I paid the guy on the NEast coast, and he shipped to Wa state.

Picked up by a buddy in Vancouver and brought into BC.

Then a vintage racer, who was riding his street GoldWing was to bring it to me!

.. seems to be how it works in the vintage world... heh..heh..

Where is it now?  There are folks from Bham going to bike week who can bring it to Birmingham if it's still in Orlando.  If it's in Hartwell, let's get to work on the Georgia Boys to get it West.

It's still with me in Orlando.   :)

When I heard that someone was going to bike week, that seemed the best way to go.  I'll be there, too, at least one day, or they can shoot down about 45 miles from Daytona to me, or I can shoot up there another day.  I'll just have it in a cardboard box to keep the trunk of someone's car clean...  ;D

John, let me know when your buddy plans to be in Daytona, and I'll meet up with him somewhere.

         Sorry about that Kirk! :-[ Yes, I got a message from John that he had the Jawa engine in his garage. And , as soon as we can get "open dates" that we can go with, we will be making the trip to meet and hand that engine over to (hopefully me Dad and) me, to bring back to Greenwood. ;)  The engine will have a lot of "Friendly" history added to it by the time we get it.  And I want to thank YOU, John, & Lee for Your efforts! 8) And I also want to thank Jeff (fuzzybutt) and James (droopy) for their offers and also those who I KNOW, would have helped oif they would have been in the position (locationwise) and that would have been a great number of you I know. 8) ;)     Sorry about the delay in passing on the info.


                                   Take care all, Bill ;)
