ktrout01 0 #1 Posted June 29, 2010 I just uncovered a 854 that I put away about 15 years ago when it stopped running. It turns over fine. Needs a real good cleaning and I may just take it all apart and do a full restoration on it. All the sheetmetal is there and in real good shape. There's some light surface rust on the frame and the seat could use a good sandblasting. I'll get some pics posted after I give it a serious bath this weekend.
