The restoration season began anew. The cold winter months kept us out of the garage. But as the weather warmed we eagerly got back into the project. The 12v generator was the first of many parts that we repaired, restored or replaced in preparation for the reassembly Phase III.

Phase II Restore

With the easy part behind us it' was time to start restoring or replacing parts. This took the longest time because each piece had to be cleaned, inspected, refurbished or replaced. It was fun to learn about each component and gratifying to see each part repaired and ready to install.
