the showman 4,074 #28 Posted November 2, 2017 Started the day by snapping a terminal on the ignition switch, after an hour of raking through boxes I found another one. that fitted i went on with the fuel tank and pipes also a new filter, found a rearlight so that went on and wired up, bolted down the seat and prepared the underside of the hood. 5 1 Triumph66, Cub Cadet, pmackellow and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Triumph66 1,256 #34 Posted November 4, 2017 I popped into Chris this afternoon to see this project. Though a stout Bolens Man through and through, i did appreciate the work he done on this Raider. Who ever buys this will be in a winner in my view. I did like his Cub Cadet though...... . 1 the showman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #42 Posted November 19, 2017 Had the Wheelhorse out today in the southern sunshine and drove it round the garden a few times. Runs and drives as it should so I'm very pleased with it. 6 pmackellow, Triumph66, Alan and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
