Oh wow, I missed out on the sale ?

Never listed it for sale

I feel better, I didn't miss out on a great deal I knew about.

One last picture from me, filing it up for the new owners the night before they picked it up. Figured I would start them out with at least one tank of fuel, they would be buying enough on the rest of the trip home



Dennis Davis, and his daughter Lacy, bought this one from me on Friday, February 8th. They flew in late Thursday night, proceeded to drive it back home to Kansas over the weekend, plus a side trip to Mobile, AL, and Pensacola FL.

I am happy to report they had no problems with it, took them back home safe and sound

It's a good Scrambler, I am sure they will enjoy it and take great care of it

I am going to miss it, though

Anyway, I now have more time to play with my other two Scramblers, hopefully get the Red Scrambler National's ready

Thanks again Dennis and Lacy, enjoy it

Sad to see this one go. Hopefully the new members visit here. I copied much of my build from information I gained here.... minus 2 cylinders. Thanks for the always thorough write ups!

Glad this stuff is helpful/entertaining

Dennis is on here, and usually goes to all the National rides, hopefully they will start a new thread

Nice ! Now if I had it, you could see it on weekends, I'm only an hour away

Thats good news. Great home for a great Scrambler

Just realized I installed the rear spindle seals backwards, this would explain why gear oil gets inside the rear hubs:

Just curious on the rims... I like the look, but why the decision to go with them vs. stock design? I re-read and didn't see the reasoning. I do admit, I like them, reminds me of the old Renegade Slot setup that my wife has on her 5... I spent a long time getting those back in shape... no...
