Here is one of these headlights finished by Don Ritchie and Larry Micol...
Thanks guys for the great pics...

Folks, I am down to two whistles remaining...
Thanks again to everyone who purchased them..
John

Isn't there a group build of this engine being done by a few members of the Washakum club?

I now have 4 Whistles remaining...
As the sales have slowed down, I do not think I will be making another batch...
Thanks again for everyone who has purchased them..

I think it is time for a video One picture is worth a 1000 words right

Yes that’ll be a great idea...
Thanks Dave..

Dave, Can you tell us (me) what kind of paint you're using, where you got it from, any paint codes, etc.. Also the type of primer, sprayer, etc.. I'm very interested in your process, I'll be doing the same thing to my G tender as soon as it gets warm enough to paint outside..
Thanks; John

I am now down to 8 remaining whistles...
Thanks again to everyone who has purchased them...
