I can't imagine what a strong running CR500 will be like - the DAMN thing scared the bejeebers out of me with a worn out mill!

New Wasp Motor
A newly rebuilt (but yet to be verified and approved by Hare) CR500 motor is on its way.

WOHOO! New CR500 Motor!
WoHOO!!!!! According to UPS, my new CR500 motor is "out for delivery."
I just hope that means to my house!
Next step is to make a flying trip to Brother Hare's house and drop it off for inspection. Although I spoke extensively with the guy I bought the motor from and I think he is a straight up guy, given all the problems I've had getting the Wasp back into shape, I'm not about to install a motor without a competent mechanic checking it out.
I'M STOKED!

Re: WOHOO! New CR500 Motor!
Here's what was on my porch when I got home!
Shipping it in that tub was a great idea - and as a plus to me, I can store the old motor in it.

We'll see the old 500 rebuilt and wind up in Bdirt's CR125 frame.
