The Buehler

well...
Sumemr is now waning off and several things have changed sicne last posting. School is back in session. Work is chugging along. I have three motorcycles and a boat.

right

wait, what!? That's right. Within a month of each other I purchased two motorcycles and a boat. silly me. The motorcycles are both early 90s suzuki Katanas, one now runs. The boat, well that is another story altogether!

Introducing the 1961 Buehler Turbocraft. A piece of 1961 technological marvelry. All fiberglass construction built in Indiana with a two stage jet drive built under licnese from a Hamilton jet design. My particular model has had a heart transplant and is now sporting a Ford 351 cubic inch v8 powerplant. So far we have spent as alittle as possible and had it out on the water twice. I just installed a distributor tuned by Al Wodtke and am waiting for him to be available to get it timed in. I will post pictures later as they are on a different machine. I just got my nerd cave up and running with the new digs and hope to post more regularily now that I will be spending long hours down here "doing homework" (just like now!)

Thanks and enjoy! :P
