Excellent results with refinishing the motor! Looks beautiful! :cheer:

All the painstaking work and effort toward removing the old finish, plus thorough prep work and cleaning, has really paid off.

Good Fortune! :)

well i didnt get any input on this before so i will try 1 more time i need to figure out how to get rid of this box but not sure how to rewire so everything will work. people say they use trailer plugs to take them of and on at diff. tracks so i am wondering if i just pull it off every thing would be fine ?? it looks like the only thing that it runs is the clutch. is there anyone that knows about these things.
