[Project 79] Update on the Project
Well, I feel like we really turned the corner this week. We have a nice shiny motor now, and only a few more non- new or restored parts left to deal with.

I haven't ever replaced a header bar before, so that is really my only task left I haven't done before.
:thumbs: :cheers:

That engine looked just like what I had in my 79. The before picture of course.
