I got the outside cleaned up and got her oiled - her case is a disaster - I can't decide whether to try to fix it up or make some kind of box for the machine to set in. This machine can't be hand cranked by attaching a HC to the boss - it is offset from the wheel. I am not sure I want my GDs to have one of these. I think a better choice would be a 99 or Spartan or 185 or 3/4 size clone...
Thanks for the info. I bought one on ebay and it came without a motor or electric cords. I'm assuming that the outer shell of the machine breaks apart because I've seen pics of it taken off. Good thing because otherwise mine would be considered broken. I haven't had time to check it over completely but I'm thinking it's going to end up as a pretty decoration.
