Putting together the bits needed for a pair of '70 Rupp Sprints for my nephews. Seeing how much blood and treasure are going to go into these builds, I figure I should put something together for them to learn on before I let them cut loose on a rare 40 year old Rupp.
I like the looks of the ubiquitous Azusa kits, but wonder how flimsy they may be. Any experience? I also like the looks of the Bad Dog kits, which are a few dollars (several few) more than the Azusas. Comments? Any other kits out there you'd recommend? I want to run a Tecumseh on whatever kit I end up with - it'll be MY trainer for learning about these engines.
Hoping to save up enough pennies to get a kit to put under the Christmas tree, but having exploded my budget to get Sprint parts, we'll have to see. Surely (yes, I called you Shirley) you have some opinions on these and other kits. And yes, I've searched. Gimme something fresh, man!
Go!
