| "Zephyring" at Bob Grubb's meet. This was a race to see who could go the slowest. There were slower than mine, though I could almost see each blade of the prop as it turned. (slight exegeration). |

| Art DeKalb with his one dollar Lightfour. One of the fellas brought it to a swap meet and didn't want to take it home. So I bought it for $1. After adding lower unit gears, magneto cleaning, rewind fixing and twiddling with the carb. it now runs great. |

| These much maligned little motors are really fine pieces of machinery. 5.4 Hp form 4 tiny pistons. This one too was a stuck and burst relic, dropped on Peter Hunn's doorstep. Derelict motors seem to beckon me. Took it apart, pressed out the pistons after band sawing off the tops of the cylinders to save the pistons. new used cylinders were found, the rest cleaned and restored. Now runs fine. See Zephyr slow race. |
