I lost my beloved L4 a few weeks ago in the big snow storms here. Thought it was gone forever but hoped it would be in a snow pile somewhere. And so I waited for the warmup.
Today it turned up in a snow pile. It had been picked up by a gas powered snow blower, chewed up and spit out. It now has a lot of character with gouges and dings all over the head and body tube. The glass was intact but I got a graphic lesson in the fact that steel is much harder than aluminum.
The good news is that it still works and with a Pila 168S from JS Burly's , it lit right up bright as always. The other good news is that comparing it to a new X4T L4 I had made up, this is most definitely an X but greener, maybe an X3.
So, anyone want to buy my other L4-X? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
