Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Well that's no good right in the middle of a project?I know this is an old thread but i read it all the way through I sure do hope Andex is well
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Anyone know if Andex is still active on the welding web? He hasn't check in a long time.
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Past-due for a yearly check-in. Any news on the project? Edit - looks like the OP hasn't been active here on the forum since 7/23/2015. That isn't a good sign.... Attachment 1714672
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration It's time for the yearly check in request.

Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration You still up?
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration I am laying in bed, 11:30 at night, reading through this only to find it's still not done. Now I won't be able to sleep
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Any updates on this?
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Just saw a 1936 SA200 listed on Craigslist says it runs and welds wants a lot. https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/tls/5981768539.html
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Ill see if i can find Pauls number and give him s shout. Last i heard he was getting into blacksmithing and was still working on ghe 36. That was last spring.
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Hello, has anyone heard from Andex to see if he has made any progress on his rare welder project? I enjoy his video, I'm starting to redo my 49' Shorty and repaint my 61' Red/Blue face in the process. My plan is to make it so the Shorty runs on propane which I got a used batch of parts necessary to do so from the local Forklift Repair/salvage man. And even though I have my Red/blue running good so far, I found a lead for a Isuzu 2.2 C232 Diesel out of a Chevy Luv I would like to see if I get that isuzu and make it run if I can get it installed and working well in the Red/Blue face
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Great read while recovering from a blown out knee. Sorry to see no post in over a year though. Hope all os well with andex
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Just read through the whole thread, and all I can say is WOW! I was really hoping you'd have it done by the time I got to the end because I hate waiting, but I guess things worth having are worth waiting for.
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Andex , any updates , this is one of the best restorations I have seen .
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Originally Posted by nickel_city_fab You and me both man, I'm just praying that Andex hasn't burned himself out on this...

Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration I have a 1936 I am restoring for a gentleman that has the hercules IXB-5 engine generator and everything is exactly like yours. Have it torn down now and suprisingly it is in really good shape. The oil in the crankcase is very clean. Supposedly it was kept inside. Did find minor damage to the wiring from rodents lol.
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Teggy1 , thats it . Thank you for posting
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Regarding the crud in the water jackets, and that pipe plug: did you consider pouring a gallon or two of muriatic acid into the water jacket? Also known as concrete etchant, commonly sold at the big-box home improvement stores. The stuff will eat any rust, lime, sediment etc right down to the bare iron. Then maybe pour some glyptal into the water jacket to coat and seal it afterwards.
Re: 1936 SA200 Restoration Originally Posted by guajilloweld03 Do not remember which Forum saw this type of repair being done.

Wish I had a better memory. Precision Alloys Company (Palco) also makes cast iron welding rods. FYI This shop is in Nevada Iowa, if this is what you referencing. Had a Detroit 4-53 head done here. http://www.midwestcylinderhead.com/services.php
