First of two Savage builds
03/19/14 at 14:47:08
 
Finished off the first of my two Savages today (got given a second as spares with the one I bought).

A quick before and after shot!!



Found that after it started first time, it wouldn't then subsequently start again!?!?!
Checked the spark, nice and strong, it has fresh fuel, decomp working properly, and turns over, just doesn't fire. Hoping a good charge overnight will sort it!!!


Onto the second!!!!

Still not starting. Turning over, but not starting. Going to change the battery, and spark plug both for new ones, as I don't know the history of both, but the battery is supposedly holding a charge!?!

Quite the transformation with just paint, exhaust wrap & tires.

You've got what appears to be a very skilled painter as well, very nicely done.  Cool

Did you go to the MX tires just for the appearance, or something more?
