    MTD/Western Flyer resto mod

    FINALLY got my carb diaphrams in the mail today. It's only been a few weeks:blink: I put the engine back on the frame and put the fenders back on. I'm hoping this weekend I'll have time to really put it together. I'll be sure to take and add more pictures..

    MTD/Western Flyer resto mod

    Didn't get a whole lot done today.All I really accomplished is to get the wheels mounted back on. Front fender is still bleeding red through a little bit so I sprayed it some more. I think I'm just gonna end up calling it good-enough. This is all gonna be a 20-20 job anyway (that is, it'll...

    Nothing too fancy on the paint since the frame had/has a lot of pitting and spatter that I didn't want to deal with. Just a scuff and respray kinda job. The wheels were starting to look pretty nasty so, decided to paint them as well. I live in the country with lots of dirt roads to ride on...

    MTD/Western Flyer resto mod

    Well, I've got most of it painted and was ready to put it back together (at least the frame) but noticed the fork bolt was bent pretty good. Got a new one from a local shop so, maybe I can start reassembly soon.

    MTD/Western Flyer resto mod

    This sticker was the original on the front fender. It had been painted over and I was using a heat gun to remove it. I was actually hoping I could get the paint off and leave the sticker, but that wasn't happening. As you can see, It is definitely a MTD. This is what I believe to be the...

    small engine atv/chopper frames

    I'm really considering it, but I've already got one minibike project going. I want the chopper frame abd my brother-in-law wants the atv, but his truck would go through 5qts of oil to make the drive HA!

    MTD/Western Flyer resto mod

    Okay, the frame has officially been de-greased and I've scuffed up all the parts for painting. Yeah, I'm just going to scuff and spray over the top. The frame has a good amount of pitting and I don't want to take the time to fix the rust on this bike. Now I've got to take a grinder (probably...
