Default Can I join the trailer queen club?

Just wanted to share...

Jon, thanks for posting about the chainsaw. Oh yeah, that is the hot ticket for getting the foam out.

The Magnum will be getting new engine stringers and a bulkhead infront of the engine. We'll see what else there is to do as the project continues.

You're REALLY getting involved there, aren't you. Put a lower (shorter) windshield or screen/fairing on there to give it a sleeker look.

David, a race fairing is in the plans. Not sure if one will be fabbed out of aluminum or go with a 'glass version like Jon did on the Formula.

And yes, just a little involved. It is kind of like, well, you know, this all started with one stripped out screw and then....

I guess I don't know the meaning of "trailer queen." I was expecting to see some naked chick spread-eagled across a MYCO. Damn, I'm disappointed.

Scott ... you know I take a deep personal interest in that ...

That looks almost as bad as my Donz does right now !

Was the trapped water caused by no drain holes at the aft ends of the stringers ? I can't believe Magnum did that .

I Want to see lots more pics .

Steve,

There was water trapped by the upper stringers (under the circular saw) and there is water standing in the gas tank well. I have not yet found any limber holes for either to drain. Before this goes back together, there will be a way for the water to come out.

Keep in mind that I pressure washed the heck out of this thing a couple of weeks ago and shot water into places that would normally never get wet.

I'll keep the pics coming.
