Location: Orland Park, IL | Keeping with the buy american thread, a fewyears back, got a crappy, old scorpoin whip from the neighbor. Quick carb rebuild, new floats, fresh lines and some gas. Man, she screams.
Picked her up today from my summer storage. fresh gas, 1 pull, and she fires right up.
Basic american machinery from crosby minnesota.

Location: Orland Park, IL | Oh ya! Got the clam in the truck, vex batt-tree is charged up, premix in the strikemaster, my st croix "greg the prowler" wyzlinski rods ready to roll, scorp is fired up, beaver dams greased, plenty of grabber warmers and got some fried kraut and mushroom pierogies.
Chrome pimples with lots of smashed spikes the ticket for me. Catches everything! Especially perch...
