OK - I finished it up this last week and fine tuned it this W/E and it works like a champ. I had to put one of my liners and one of my bottle throats in as the modified liner that was with the machine just would not work. The bottle throat had been cut in half, so there was no place to attach door liner to the bottle throat. Also the line cover bend was squared off and it wouldn't sit nice on the curved line cover; therefore, the door looked warped with gap on the bottom right of about an inch and the top right being 1/4 of an inch.
The guy had riveted the drum together and had the counter-weights in the wrong location, so I fixed that issue.
Everything was re-zinc plated and the drum I had powder-coated. I had all the gold plated items re-chromed back to silver too.
I painted the bottom of the liner with POR-15.
MUCH MUCH thanks to Rod and Janet at Fun-Tronics for donating the necessary parts to do a proper refurb!
I return it tomorrow - hope they like it and get lots of money for it at auction to help the kids!!
