Re: 50 years ago I was given this USAF 54 3100

Ok 3 days and 30 miles later its still running cool. Fan has yet to go on cause it gets nowhere near 210 anymore. While the NSS is great the brake "safety" is history. Hated it from the start. Whoever said to skip it was right -- big PITA!

In other events i happened to brush past the plug that goes into the tilt column headlight dimmer. It and the switch instantly disintegrated into little plastic crumbs. It was only 36 years old and feel cheated. Replacements were not available at any local stores so i found one on EBAY for 1/4 the price locals wanted. They had to order them anyway. What i got was an Original Borg Warner switch with picture instructions made in 1994!!!. Original box is so cool its on display in garage!
