well, i think im ganna start on the engine now. i just finished degreasing the block and pretty much is ready for paint. ill take pics as i go.

ok, so heres some quick pics i took. the paint came out great. i let the paint bake in front of the torpedo heater for 20 min, and comes out with a good gloss. i threw up my 86 se50 engine (on the left) to give a comparison of the 85 nb50 im buildin. i also had to condense the scooters to the bed of the ElCamino to make some room lol. 1 and a half car garage just dont cut it. my 84 is behind the ElCamino. anywho, ill keep postin as i go.

thats nice, i have a ranchero i got from a guy down the street for free, he said take it off my land today and its yours. i did got it running poorly and in the spring will attempt to fix it. but it seems like it has a warped head.

i thought the paint was red...
in that video it looks orange.

Posted: **Mon Jan 28, 2008 5:29 pm**

yea....its red alright. must just be the lighting i guess. ill try and get another video up soon.

Lookin good, strange seeing an se50 motor done up like this, but props to you.

Not a fan of all red engines but I like how its tuning out. Methinks red block with black shroud and polished belt cover looks best.

Posted: **Sat Feb 02, 2008 7:11 pm**

ok, engines done. still workin on the carb, and have to paint the muffler. oh yea, its a NB50, not a se50 s.

Posted: **Sat Feb 02, 2008 7:23 pm**

looks like its gonna be fast, are NB50 motors the motors in the 85 aeros that are suposed to be really fast?
