Not much to brag about this month. I ordered a little research material "The Great Planes VW conversion manual". so some light reading on cold March nights.

Found another single port VW engine on Craigslist for $100. The seller was in Balston Spa. He bought the engine to rebuild a VW Bug but ran out of time. He was selling the VW Bug for $1,000. Not interested - don't need another project.
August 17, 2019 bought a new table saw blade. ($49)

March 12, 2019 I found a VW engine online. Bought it for $600 it came with a Hegy Prop. The back story is that the guy I bought it from: His step father bought the engine and prop in Florida at an airshow in the 1980's . His stepfather always wanted to build an airplane but never got around to it. The seller lived in Northern Vermont and was a delivery driver for a seed company. He brought the engine to a feed store in Bennington, VT. Some time when I have some time I will take it apart and give it all new seals.
