The one time your parents aren’t home, 1911 Westinghouse tank purchase!

So my parents are at a wedding somewhere, so they won’t be back for three weeks! So I’ve made some questionable decisions, first off I saved about $330 to buy this tank, which never really hit me, working three weeks on weekends really payed off lol. So i

bought this beautiful thing off rob Duffy. He delivered it to me and showed me the problems it had and he took it apart right in front of me to clean the start contacts. How nice of him 🙂  I thought in my head. So this thing was ran for 12 hours straight by rob on 104v I however can’t run it on 104 due to he has a variac I think. So

ive been running it on the line voltage on low. It runs fantastic! I’ve wanted a complete tank since my dilemma with my 12 which is still coming together

Two weeks because the third week is reserved for removing evidence of the first two weeks.

Shampooing the carpets...

Patching the wall holes...

Putting dad's Ferrari up on
blocks and running it in
reverse to take miles off
the odometer...
