As some of you know I been working on a VAIW , found EXV #'s on it and Nick told me it is very possible this is the ONLY one built... thinking it was built in 1951 ..
Anyway I had to change the Dist. { which I really don't know what I was doing } after talking to a couple of guys , they thought I could do it { with what I had to look for and set it up } I put new points and condenser in it tonite and had spark between points so I put to together and hit the started a couple of times and IT WAS RUNNING { 1st time since I got it 5years ago }
now put the rest of it together .. took a day off work yesterday to finish painting ... Now I got to get an exhaust system on it ...
THANKS TO ALL that help me with this ................ mark

AWESOME!!

It very closely resembles the tug tractors we used when I worked for Continental Airlines. Is it built like a tug? Really heavy steel to give it weight for pushing planes? ....Or [i:2e5bb766de]IS[/i:2e5bb766de] IT a tug??
 

It's a VAIW .. a tug tractor ... was used in warehouses and during the war { WW2 } they were used on the flight line to move airplanes ... were also on ships to move airplanes ..

this one never left the factory , it was used around the factory by maint. personal ....

THANKS for asking ............ mark
