Message in a Bottle (Transmission)
Posted: November 17th, 2009, 11:38 pm
This evening, I was taking the axles out of the transmission of my old solo vee. Hopefully if I clean it up an put it together carefully, it won't leak as bad. When I took one of the side gears out, I was very suprised. Vibra-etched in clear cursive on the face of the gear is "hopefully this time we'll do better 1-31-73" There is a name or some initials that are undecipherable (3-4 letters) between the sentence and the date.
