That would still be a destructive device in the USA.

Default Glad you could make it over!

This is the place for information on your project. There are a couple of other Sexton rebuilders who will be able to share their experiences.

Please post regular updates. There will be situations that all of us can learn from.

I will post pics of all the small parts that were included to put it back together when I get back in town as those were included in the sale.

Just curious, what do these sell for in Canada in this condition?

That's one lucky Sexton, it's humid, damp days are over ! I'm jealous!
That's going to be a great project, keep the pics coming.

That was a great buy Ron! If I remember correctly the seller was asking 75k US, you can't go wrong at that price! I wouldn't use the Canadian market as a value guide...it is worth way more in Europe or the USA
