The oil leak from overnight.

Figured out why it's marking territory as @AllisKidD21 says.  I left the fuel shutoff in the on position and it leaked gas into the block.  That fresh oil change for haspin last month has gotta go.  I really need to get around and look into a carb kit for this thing too.

Finally pulled the trigger on a carb kit.  Should have done it long ago.

Carb kit has been sitting on my desk now for a few weeks.  I need to install it sometime.  LOL  I'll finish getting Thor out of the garage and I can move it back in.  I would like to finish up Patriot sometime soon as well.  Fixin to start a rear bumper for Patriot.  See where that goes.

Now for the unpopular post of the day...

I know everyone loves the old hood, but I think I will be going back to the original when I get to working on it more full time.  While the old hood looks cool, it isn't very sturdy on there nor is it functional or easy to work with.  I like the ease of pull a pin and lift off design I had with the original hood.  I will consider another set of those pods to replace the headlights.  



Those fronts look familiar... Oh yeah they are on Patriot!

Yep. I'd definitely put pods on it.

Now this is where I get creative... What if...



What if you cut the circled part out and replaced it with a light bar or something similar? I always thought that might be a cool addition to one of those Murray's.

Maybe even add a scoop

I see you added "H.E." to the title.

So this is officially Lil' Red Haspin Edition? Haha.

Creative Ideas... not really my direction.

LOL, yep.

I'm pretty ready to start tackling this project.  I just need to source some materials for the re-build.

I'm hoping to maybe do something similar to @AllisKidD21's MTD ride in the way of suspension on the front end.  Not sure how I am doing steering just yet, but It looks to be rack and pinion again.  I am not sure yet, but I do like the no play attribute of it.  Red may get extended a wee bit as well in the process.  Maybe a little like Kal.

I hope to get started next month.  Hoping the temps come down a little and hang there for a while.  I've not really experienced the level of humidity we have held onto this year.  More like Louisianan and not Oklahoma.
