[fbref5269]

jeff,

thanks for everything. sounds like the package would survive anything.

let me know what the damages are on monday.

hope it is just a stuck ring. if it's been sitting for a while it may be. i'll perform sugery when it arrives.

does it look like it had a lot of dried castor inside?

No it dosn't at all. Looks like whoever put them away last had a brain.

I think for the price, you got yourself a great lil' B Frank!

[Jeff Lytle]

For those who might be wondering what's going on here........I located a B Looper up here in Canada.

I knew Frank was looking for one, and gave him the info to contact the owner, which he did. He made the deal, and I went to pick it up today for him.

So why did this seemingly Quincy Crazy Kanuck let a looper pass him by?
I really have my heart set on either a C or a D, and I know......given a bit of time and good luck, my time will come. I have already contacted someone I know who has a C, and is thinking of letting it go after he completes it (NO! It's NOT Frank!! He has the sickness BAAAAADDDD!) I asked him to let me know, cause I'm first in line!

Enjoy it Frank! It was my pleasure.............BTW--Doug says he has a friend who has two more B's! For sale??? Who knows, but a phone call might do the trick.

A Z, B or D myself. In an ideal world, I want a beast, and I know where one's at.....

maybe one day i could get a 6 cyl looper... the mother of all engines. who would need fireworks on the 4th of july, just fire a 6 up and wait for the cops to arrive could convert it to run on gas and fire it up at new years and have a sound and light show.

Frank I think you are more likely to be able to find 2 D's and make a 6. Since its not really for racing, I guess you could make a 45 ci from 2 C's as well.

Frank: You get more than some errant Cops these days! Try a city counsellor, his daughter, people running for their lives off docks who were fishing! One Cop in one episode emptied his slurpee on my towcar's windshield! One Geezer had his Irish Setter dog pee on my car's front wheels, both sides! On the other side of the river there is a 4 lane highway, people on it switched lanes thinking something was shooting at them nearby not from some boat launch 1/4 mile across the river at the city north end boat launch! BUT!! A Quincy Loop 6 sounds so much better than a 4......so much better! With one of those its behind bars and keys thrown away!

hi all,

i have found a place to run the looper!!!!! i have found one of the sponsors of an amoci wet meet that does allow loopers and other vintage outboards with open exhausts. he hosts 2 meets each year. i won't be ready for the first one but will be for the second. although i hope to show fc52 on the 17th.

Hi Frank- Keep us posted on either showing or running your loopers. Make sure who ever covers the AOMC meets in your chapter gets pictures in the Outboarder.

I bought a A/B Looper crankcase and need a block for an A. I have the pipes, heads coils, point setup and the flywheel. Anyone want to sell an A or B Looper block. If you have a B I will need pistons and rings. Also would like to get a late style set of megaphones. apvw1@aol.com
