Simply Junk Now

[Yorkie]

I went to look at this pile of junk yesterday. the guy said someone had died and it was being thrown out (literally - look at the broken fins) so I picked over the bones. Must have been 6 bottom ends and about 10 gear boxes. Mostly Atlas stuff. A sign of things to come I think.

I hope you can connect the junk with it's new owners.

A lot of good parts and internals etc for guys doing a rebuild, and if your crank is .060 under , finding a standard one means a lot .

Someone's junk is someone's else's treasurer.

At least two Commando engines in there including a Mk111. But the heads do look a bit messed up.

I know I would be if I were over there

 

[texasSlick]

I have two fantasies in life .....

1) a young thirties something built to the nines will fawn all over me, and
2) I will find a storage locker with two pristine Nortons in it and a truck load of parts.

Either one is a long shot.

EDIT. Dear Lord, can I just have the parts?

There's only 2 genders ..... The rest are psychiatric disorders.

Not sure that biology or history agrees with you.

All humans are born with biological characteristics of sex, either male, female, or intersex (hermaphrodite).

Gender, however, is a social construct and generally based on the norms, behaviors, and societal roles expected of individuals based primarily on their sex and hundreds of distinct societies around the globe have their own long-established traditions for third, fourth, fifth, or more genders.

On nearly every continent, and for all of recorded history, thriving cultures have recognized, revered, and integrated more than two genders.

For example, in NA prior to colonization, there were up to five accepted genders - https://indiancountrytoday.com/archive/two-spirits-one-heart-five-genders
