BUFORD #1 Smoker...Restored...New Cam, Piston, Rod, Etc.

SmokerKing · Nov 11, 2013

My original Rat Rod BUFORD #1 has been showing some wear and weathering over the years.

I decided to take it into the shop and install a new cam, piston, rod, oil temp gauge, handles, paint, etc.

Just in time to fire it up for Thanksgiving turkey!

FYI:

The piston is an ashtray for my cigars and swivels under the shelf, the foot pedal holds the Maverick transmitter and the mechanical oil temp gauge is functional to 350 degrees.

The Hurst T handle and the Cal Custom valve cover wing nuts are a nice touch. Great work!
