X2! I don't like seeing 169's not saved!

I agree, I like to see every cub saved. :beerchug:

My dream machine,Ive always wanted one.Good luck.

True.:beerchug:

I agree. Save them all. I wish my wife felt the same way. She doesn't say anything, just shakes her head.

Here are some pics (hopefully)...I put a battery in it and she cranked over which is a good sign. I'm not gonna try to start it until after I yank the motor, clean out all possible and probable mouse houses....new gaskets, carb rebuild, new points, condenser, coil, wire, and plug. When it gets warmer I'll get to it. Too cold for fingers to work right now!

Cleaning it up is a good idea but I'd maybe think about getting it started before putting a lot of work into the engine. It might not need the work done or, worst case, the motor is in bad shape and you have to undo all your work to fix the problem. Just a thought. I'm certainly no expert.

Nice find on the 169, looks good.:beerchug:

i was told by the guy the motor was fine, which i believe him because hes been very credible for everything he told me about my previous purchase from him. hour meter only shows 606 hours and it does work. turned the key on and it was moving slowly!

looks good I would put new oil And gas And give a try
