Finishing a rebuild project - 1970s Torpado Alpha that has been dissembled for going on two months. Need to clean and wax frame, rebuild the main bearings, clean up the components and then reassemble with new parts. I find once I get going on the bearings the project starts to gather momentum. http://ryansrebuilds.blogspot.com/
