I knew I shouldn't have loaned Cousin Thurston the BP-1. He's always getting into these...(ahem)..."situations".... But when him and Fergy came over Friday evenin' and told me they were going frog-giggin' and needed to cut a couple of cottonwoods which were blockin' the old jeep trail down to the old ox-bows where the river used to run where usually there's good bunches of bullfrogs.... I went ahead and let him take it. I told him to be careful and not to over-rev it.... And I told him again, when I noticed that him and Fergy had three cases of Bud thrown in the back of the pickup with their gigs and spears and big lights and stuff..... "Be real careful with that chainsaw, Thursty," I told 'im.....
By the time Fergy came draggin' in here at ten a clock this mornin', I knew as soon as I seen the bandages and tore shirt and stains on 'is levi's that somethin' had happened. And when I looked in the back of the pickup and seen the wreck of the BP-1, it almost broke my heart.....
If any of you guys have got a few spare parts, maybe I can fix it again....
All I need is an engine assembly with crankcase, the fuel tank and handles, oil tank and lines with plunger and seals, clutch assembly and cover with sprocket and the bar and chain, the flywheel, the starter dawgs and springs and cover with recoil springs and rope and handle,.....Oh, and some of the electronics.... magneto and points and condenser and coil and plug wires.... and just a few other small parts.... rear handle, frame, bar side cover and nuts, bearings and seals, a workin' carb, trigger and control wires, choke lever and wire, maybe a few other small parts....
If you've got 'em layin' around and will sell them for less than $50, including shipping to New Mexico, I'd sure appreciate it if you'd let me know....
Thanks!!

p.s. -- I guess I'll need the shrouds and tinwork, too... You can just put 'em in the side of the box....

I usually figure by the time you could've told me 'bout it, it could've been done!!
