Shaun - would you be interested in weighing that engine carrier?

That' the heavy black chunk in the foreground - not the crossbar (the crossbar mounts to it)

3 pounds, 11.6 ounces

Shaun,
My car was a walk in the park compared to your "obsession"!!! I'm getting a headache over what metal work needs to be done. I am not worthy...... maybe start with the headlight rings and work back!!!! You go boy....

That's a 900SS Ducati! Rock On. Good luck with the project!

Hey Moe, how's life with a 993? This thing just needs a little buff job. Will be good as new with some Zymol. It's actually going up to Damon's for the welding work on his Celette when he can take it. I'm doing all prep and dressing. We'll see.


Thanks Jeff, it's a truly awesome bike, keeps a smile on my face while the cars are all apart. Was out yesterday...waaaay too cold! but needed a fix.:D What's in your stable of "a couple of Italian motorcycles?"

Moe, you need to change the avitar to the black 993 dude!!!

Hey, this thread isn't about me!!! Ahhhh Ducati's....... anyone got a cigarette???

Shaun @ Tru6 01-03-2009 08:19 AM

Finally got the rotisserie done, easily the best thing I've ever made from scratch. It's solid enough that you can spin the car like the Wheel of Fortune. With the S slated to go to Damon's sometime down the road, I've turned my attention onto the E for a complete restoration. Hoping it will be back on the road in June.

Very cool Shaun. Keep up the good work. It was nice talking with you yesterday.

Kroggers 01-07-2009 07:01 AM

That is so cool Shaun....

Shaun @ Tru6 03-21-2009 09:56 AM

Been working 90 hour weeks for far too long, first morning I've had to myself in ages. Cleaned out the garage, hoping to really dig into it in a week or so.

glad to see the car is back

S&A?? do you get free CRC chemicals?

Shaun @ Tru6 03-22-2009 05:08 AM

thanks for the good words, I've got to get this car back together by the end of June to maintain any shred of sanity I still have left.

Randy, S&A is a parts distributor/runner, I get parts cheap cheap to keep the 4Runner on the road, not much in chemicals.

Shaun,
How about some new pictures of the E?

Kroggers 12-18-2009 08:08 AM

Yes, Shaun - where is the update ;)

Shaun @ Tru6 12-18-2009 08:23 AM

I'm sorry, I thought you fellas knew. I sold the E to a good friend, a fellow Pelican. It's long gone, rotisserie on loan. Spring 10 turned out be one of the best for my company, and I wanted to expand my product line for Fall, so with the credit market the way it is, I had to sell the E...and a lot more including stuff here (a fraction of what I need to get up, but really need to move those RSR pistons):

I've gone from struggling and therefore selling parts to growing and therefore selling parts. Still poor! But I think it will be worth it late in 2010. :)

-69S matching numbers!
I know people trade their kindeys for it! bare that in mind when it feels though.
Dont rush it you will get there.
