  • Where there's Crosley's there's Homelites

    I found a fellow in Beaverton who has a large stash of Crosley parts. He just happened to have some Homelites in pieces. I bought everything Homelite he had. He had taken the rods out for his Crosley. I now have an excellent "A" block to use for my #1 engine which has the compression issues. There was another "A" block but it was cracked. Also got another stator for the #2 engine which I am using and it looks like the charging problem is solved. I'm taking it out again Sunday for a little fishing. Looks like I might have enough pieces to put the #3 engine together also.

    Well, I am not really surprised with this. I know you have been restoring early Honda motorcycles for a long time but I only expected you to get one engine and a parts motor.

    Good going, glad you got it running right.
