The purchase

  I may be getting in over my head but I finally decided to  rebuild a old Four wheeler. After weeks of searching I decided on a 1988 Honda 250X. Over the next few months (lets hope) I will be keeping anyone who cares up to date on the progress. Maybe to help the next person to try this or maybe deter someone in the future from trying this. I will be posting pictures and narratives on the progress.
Well lets get started. The picture below is of the new baby after I put all the available pieces in place and the frame on the stand. To say the least it is pretty pathetic. But what do you expect for $350.
   It looks better than when I picked it up though. After driving for 4 hours through a rain storm I found a bunch of parts on a trailer. So, I loaded the truck in the rain at night and made a quick check for all the parts (a decision I would regret later), paid the seller, signed a bill of sale and off we went.
