My goodness - it was a long way from that fate. Would never do that!

So far; lightly touched up valves and seats, replaced rocker arms, new closer half rings, shimmed valves, new valve seals, new cam belt idle rollers, new rod bearings, new 5th driven gear (needed it), new matching 2nd driving and driven gear (ok, but i was there, so), trans big ball bearings were updated to rollers (as Cranky has suggested) a few years back, checked and re-shimmed trans and crank, new piston rings (pistons and cylinders still look very good), and new seals and gaskets as needed at this point. I will paint the rocker, clutch, and side covers, and eventually re-dial the cams. Then new belts.

And then to the frame with wiring harness. And front and rear suspension. And……
