Full lock is good and clears. Haven’t flexed it out yet. Will see what I can do this weekend for that.

Is that spot over your head as rotted as it looks? And the cover for the hole at the 3 o’clock position held together with strap stock? Yeeesh. Looks like some work there before that’s a pressure vessel again

Yes, there are a few some soft spots, however that is just the smoke box, and well outside the pressure retaining boundaries.
I added a little bling to a square tube end cap on my English Wheel.

The lack of a motor is going to be a problem real soon.
I blew out the drag link/pitman arm connection a couple weeks ago, so it gave me a reason to install the high steer kit I've had sitting in the garage for years. I had to zip tie my steering together to get the 60 in the shop.
I also did some bodywork with 2x4s to fix the big dent i put in the rear quarter last winter. Its not perfect, but I'll take it for now.
