I tinkered most of last Saturday and got the Hercules firing on all 6, tried the clutch and all the levers moved it back and forth under it's own steam, main brakes a bit iffy which was cured by adjusting. Now that I know all systems more or less work, I'l have to decide what to put on the back, and then begin the long job of restoration. Definitely miss the gatherups at Gracie's, but with any luck I'll make a jaunt up before Christmas.
Cheers, Bill
