Timeless Design - NL320 & Violins

Recommended Posts

Horsing around in the shop this morning; walked around the back of the NL and couldn't resist snapping a pic. The 100 year old walnut piano converted to a violin workbench provided a fitting backdrop for the little pickup. Design Masterpieces.

 

The little 1200 Sport Truck has a name now. 'Mighty Mouse'.

Had to pull the distributor a couple days ago. Early last week I was terrorizing the town and Mighty Mouse fell flat on his face. No spark!! A previous owner didn't do a very good job job at keeping the electrons separated from ground on the way to the points. Fabbed a couple of phenolic washers, cleanup, point set, & re-install and BINGO!! Ready to prowl the town again.

 

When he gets a rebuild later this year, he's getting a non-matchbox electronic dizy with a GM module in the cab & under the dash.

 

Life is good!!
