It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site. So much history and tradition.

No.

Yeah I hear you. Having a working machine that's over half a century old is pretty crazy. I like the oldies.

$350. Had it running on quick-start but it wouldn't pick up the fresh gas in the tank. The carb is going to have to come off and be cleaned. No problem. I'll replace the seat and flip if for 1k. It's like new.

It had domino problems. - Carb needed cleaning...had to disassemble the back to get at it. Exhaust pipe was bent in the way of two screws. Fixed that. - Then it wouldn't go in gear...pulled steering wheel and disassembled steering column to get at the cables and lever. One cable had broken strands from being adjusted too lose, both were seized and needed a lot of coaxing and soaking to free them up. Got everything back together and working. Ordered one new cable. - The drive belt started smoking after 10 minutes of mowing. Primary and final drive belts were both trashed. Replaced both belts and a frozen idler. Fixed. - Started mowing again. Deck belt gave out. Replaced the belt - works fine. - Went mowing again. Stalled after 5 minutes. Won't start. I had cleaned the tank, replaced the furl line and filter, cleaned the carb completely when I took the arse end apart. I guess I missed something. It's parked in the garage until I stop cursing. Moved on to fixing my Ariens mower belt. 😶

Pretty crazy LOL

I drove there with two uncharged batteries so I didn't get to travel the entire quarry. Glad you enjoyed it.

It's currently in my garage. I have new brake and fuel lines and new gas tank and pump ready to install. I have a temporary tank in the back seat area so I can occasionally start it and let it run a half hour. It has loads of new parts that were installed during the engine swap (3000kms and 14 years ago) , like clutch lining, fly wheel, headers, wires, CIA etc. It has a small rust spot to repair on driver's side rocker, otherwise well above average. Interior is clean with no tears or cracks in the dash. Always store inside. I plan on selling for $10k CDN once all the parts are installed, but would consider 8k as-is with the parts included.

If only you were sailing her. Girt.

Realistic?

Great deal!

Same lol

Should drop by my neck of the woods in the summer, we got some big wooden doreys that are/were all wood, and we're fiberglassed over, but we have one original wooden doreys stashed away totally persevered with no glass, but is in Northern Cape Breton

And the local Marina (shinning waters) have a few of these beauties

We were just speaking on Kijiji. I sent you the link for this channel. :)

@@27floater14 I found you on here some time ago, but only recently found your Kijiji ad, and I have some clips (short and scattered) on here of my boats if yea wanna have a dig , your more then welcome too

@@27floater14 I have be subbed to yea fer a minute, love the boats you can find, hope you pop by an have a look at my fleet of doreys some time, might try and get them sea worthy again for a summer, like to do a mackerel trap boat race with them in the knot two distance future 😉

Hey thank you! Do you know much about these rigs? I mounted the dozer and tried it out and I'm about to mount the blower and try it out, but I think I might be missing a part. Do you know what engages the clutch? I think I'm missing a link between the pedal and the clutch.

Do you know is the 10hp motor a Briggs and Stratton?

@@SKOMPAS Yes it is. It was blown when I got it and I'll be swapping something else in.

I would be very interested in seeing the ad or pictures and info from it. I am using a server in Ireland and have searched but can't find it. Perhaps it sold? Maybe you could reply with a link to the ad, ad number if you would.

It was on Facebook marketplace, unfortunately by the time I went to go and look at it was gone, as far as I know it was fully working! I have a screenshot of it that’s all unfortunately, didn’t realise how rare these where !

@@SKOMPAS I widened the search criteria to include England and found one. Might be the same one you saw. Thanks for getting back to me.

When I accquired Stella Ann she also suffered from LKS (lost keep syndrome) so I had to make a new one. I had the measurements when I fabricated the new one (see my videos STELLA ANN Part 3 and Part 5) but I don't believe I have them anymore. If I remember correctly it was 48" long and the width can be measured by removing the upper half of the keel trunk (from the head side) and measuring between the depth of the slots in the guides, allowing a little slack (1/8") to reduce binding. I fabricated the bulb using a 36" piece of 8" diameter schedule 80 pipe, filled with used wheel weights and sealed on each end with a steel plate to hold the weights inside and seal it off from filling with water and rusting, then carefully aligned it with the newly installed plate and welded it to it. The nose and tail pieces were turned of laminated softwood on a wood lathe and bolted onto each end of the pipe with 5/8" threaded rod that was attached to the end caps before welding them in place. I then covered them in epoxy and painted everything The original plate portion was made of 1/4 steel plate but when I made the new one I used 5/16 plate for a little extra ballast. MAKE SURE to attach a safety cable from the upper end of the plate to the top of the trunk structure, in case anything fails or the winch slips from your hands.

PS...the steel components you see at the upper end of the keel trunk in Part 5 are not original. I added it for additional security. The original weight-bearing structure was all made of white oak, I just added the steel to it.

@@27floater14 Thank you!

@@27floater14 I am not sure if this message will show up, I can't believed I missed this comment, reply if its still available and I will try and contact you, I would be more than interested

Especially in the fog

I had a mishap that resulted in some serious run-out. Prior to that it worked fantastically. Good power, excellent speed control and the table elevated nicely. Good spindle travel too. I have 3 other presses scattered around my buildings so I haven't spent time to see what the problem is yet. I'm hoping it's just the chuck. Keep the clutch wear points on the shaft clean and well lubricated. Binding is the usual death of variable speed pulley systems.

@@27floater14 thanks!
