After months of searching one showed up to my door thanks to Lee. Compression is low, piston has some minor scoring but not enough to make me think any chrome is peeled from the cylinder wall. No sparky so hoping it's just a bad condenser as nothing changed when the points were cleaned. Have a nova II chip I might install for the time being to see if I can get it to run. Gonna be a full resto and rebuild on this one at some point. Just happy to have a 35 pound beast. lol Anybody have a 48+ inch roller nose bar they want to sell?
