Hey Bruce, your delivery service is slower than "Snail Mail".
Did Ralf finally get his SS head???????
Yes he did, Greg.  And I packed it in a Priority Mail box!
Air Mail option did not work out - airstrip owner was concerned the plane would hit one of his cows.

I need an excuse to fly to Jackson County airport. Is that the closest? Actually PKB is closer but it has a control tower and I fly w/out a radio.

Looks like that CL engine is actually a Henry J engine, even if it did come out of a Jeep.  The weird air horn and the backwards carb certainly aren't Jeep items.  There's a lot of stuff there; too bad it's so far away.
There's a reason it's called Ol' Unreliable
