Here is my semi restored 76 440 cyclone. I finished a week ago pained all parts exept the hood. I also put new seals in the engine. The rest of the work will be done in the spring. Here are the before and after pictures.

She looks pretty darn good, especially after taking her apart in October. I will fully admit that Cyclones have grown on me the past few years. Look forward to seeing at at the Waconia.
