Thanks to all who helped me in the past two weeks w/ 49' C. I got the head back from the machine shop & bolted it on tonight & it started after only cranking for about 3 seconds...smoothed right out, I'm impressed...

For those who care, it started running rough about a month ago, so I decided it was time for a tune-up...well, one thing led to another which led to another & another & in the end I ended up replacing all ignition parts (magneto/ wires/ coil/ plugs/ distributor cap/ rotor/ points)...than I knew the valves had blow-by (wet compression test..rings were good)..so, off to the machinist (new seats/ vavles/ springs/ pushrods/ seals)....than , I finally gave it new brakes (15yrs overdue), bought 2 new tires for the back (12 * 38's), new battery, re-built the starter (also 15yrs overdue), rebuilt generator (yep, 15yrs overdue), flushed the radiator/ pressure tested, new hoses, new belts, new clamps, new swithc for magneto (I don't have to twist two wires anymore), than I painted the whole shootin' match & ordered a new muffler & new decals for her....ugh!!!! All this started because she was running rough!!!!

Anyway, tomorrow I'll finish putting the sheetmetal on her, & hopefully the decals will be here this week!!

Anyone want to buy a new 1949 C????

Thanks again to all who answered my questions over the past 4 weeks, it all worked!

Today's Featured Article - Picking Corn - by Rick Nikolich. It was the day before Christmas shutdown at work and I asked our lead engineering expert Scott Andrzejewski what he was going to do over the holidays. He said that he had some corn that he still needed to pick with an antique one-row New Idea corn picker. Scott has a nice farm about an hour north of Lansing in St. Johns, MI. He wanted to get the rest of his corn in by the next day (Christmas Eve). We had about an inch of new snow on the ground and single digit temperatures. So in the bac ... [Read Article]
