Circuit breakers (2-3)

Anyone change out their breakers for alternatives and have a couple floating around?

My panel is in need of 2-3 replacements.

Suspension limiting straps

The Steyr Puch woven wire suspension limiting straps..in a word.. suck. They were great in their day, I guess, but are prone to chafing on the shackle mounts and snapping under tension. OEM style replacements are crazy expensive for what they are. Nowadays, off-road vehicles the world over use nylon...

Re: Body off restoration starts today!

Hammerite in non-hammered variants work great since they are very self leveling.

Re: Body off restoration starts today!

I hope you top-coated the POR.. It will turn grey and slough off without the top coat. It's not UV stable.

Re: Haflinger engine for sale (USA)

After my last post, i was told, on good authority, that this motor was EXACTLY as advertised. The Hafi it came from had an engine swap, and this one was mothballed.

If someone in the USA needed a motor, this was a pretty good buy.

Re: Haflinger engine for sale (USA)

He probably doesn't have the Hafi anymore.. and including the 2nd engine with the sale probably wasn't a good ROI. Sell the Hafi for $10k, and the motor for $5k.

And he wants $85 to create the motor.. Who says the economy is in the crapper!

1971 Haflinger Pathfinder restoration.

I'm starting this thread to have a place to document my "restoration" of the 1971 Haflinger Pathfinder I purchased 9 months ago. To be honest, most of what I have done to date is "systematic deconstruction" and familiarization.. since this is my first Hafi. It is 40F today in my ...

Yokohama Super Digger II in 12 inch.

My tire search continues.. I have found a few vendors in the USA selling 145r12 Yokohama Super Digger IIs. They are substantially more aggressive than the few remaining 12 inch street tires models still available in the USA. Has anyone had experience with this tire? Would they properly fit a stock 1...

"Steyr Puch" insignia refurb.

I've been seeing many different finishes on the Steyr Puch badges out there. I need to clean up mine. Does anyone know if the Haflinger only came with an unpainted "bright" emblem and/or an OD military one? Were they ever painted from the factory, and if so, was it black/white/green or a c...

I've been considering just buying some rod stock and bending the back two bows myself.. It doesn't appear to be so thick as to be very difficult..

T-Shirt as Xmas gift.. Haflinger!

In-laws gave me a Haflinger T-shirt.
They found in in the Zazzle marketplace.
It's quite nice.
(Forgive the wrinkles.. It sat in the laundry pile a bit too long.)

Re: Site on a "go slow"

My indicator switch "bought the farm" long ago, to be replaced with a robust aftermarket unit. I know what you mean, though. I saw a little kid twist a tail lamp lens off a pristine Austin-Healey 3000 at a local car show.

Luckly, it wasn't my kid.

Unfortunately, removing the accounts isn't enough in this case, as spam-bots have archived the answer to the interrogation question.
Markus is going to have to change that question, to stop all the new accounts from being created.

Re: Spam Prevention

May I suggest one of the photoCapcha plugins for the BBS version.

This one could even be set up to be Haflinger specific!
