Not much progress in the past couple of days. I did order a belt, I believe it was 48.5" or something like that, what I mainly remember is that it was $50!!! Tomorrow I plan to build the new rear floor, and make a mount for an oil cooler and the filter. I believe all that's left after that are my hub conversions and building the exhaust.
Thinking about an exhaust, I am getting some 1.25" mandrel bent U's, a two 1.25" to one 2" collector, and it will be topped off with a glasspack. I need some advice on building the header. Do both 1.25" pipes need to be the same length? Should they be a certain length? Anything else I should know before I dive into this?
On a completely unrelated and somewhat sad note, I went to Jonesboro yesterday to swap out some empty gas bottles for the welder. While I was up there, I decided to go and see the spot where the Hustler factory origionally was (2924 E. Nettleton Ave., according to a late brochure on route6x6). Well the factory building is long since demolished, and the location is currently occupied by a First Security Bank.
