I was just looking at the weather map of the US and it does not look good. I hope you all come through this relatively unscathed. Up here in Canada we are prepared for low temperatures and lots of snow for the most part which we are also getting albeit colder then average.

Fairbanks Morse

Just picked up a running Fairbanks Morse hit and miss engine. Excellent compression,extremely good shape except the governor Has some parts missing. Has great compression, starts easily, and runs well. It isn't a true hit and miss, it's throttle governed the exhaust valve is not held open. The governor controls the mixer instead. It also is an early sealed crank case model. No oilers, it has oil in an enclosed crankcase and an oil slinger. Painted nice too, not rusty. I am making a new cart for it. Also bought a sandblasting cabinet cheap that was never used and I am in the process of making upgrades on.

Well I can't ride the America any longer or until my left hip stops hurting, it hurts all the time. I don't want to chance my hip and leg going out from under me when I park. I'm 69 with both hips replaced. Rig, hip in June 2008, left hip in July 2019. its the left hip that cant bear much weight. Due to the pain I can't walk 1/4 miles.
