Lost the coil on the "Dirty Nine"... bracket broke...who knows how long it was hanging by the wires before I noticed it...someone many decades ago made an adapter plate so they could use a pan coil on her. The bracket on the coil itself cracked off. There was no bottom bolt...musta lost that years ago...

  
Matt loaned me a bolt, lock washer and nut...I slid the coil back into place and bolted the bottom...Like New!

Adam documenting...

I think Bolt-On was trying to sneak up behind me and grab it!

Damn!

Rhinebeck was fun. Bought some cool stuff and had a blast! The foot traffic was lighter than past years, but plenty of vendors. I shoulda took more pictures...the highlight was that 41 Knuckle fresh outta Pennsy!
