    Constellation 862. Help needed!

    Well This is my Best Answer. Well, about the rivets. If you drill out the rivets you will need a pop rivet gun. You can usually pick those up at garage sales for a few bucks. I think your motor pooped because it looks like it hasn't been serviced or cleaned since I don't know when, but a long...

    That Liquid Wrench Penetrent Rots and Eats the Rubber... The problem was created when you used oil near rubber. When oil comes in contact with rubber it eats it away and weakens it. I suggest next time, fully disassemble the area frozen and knock the parts free with a hammer, and sparingly...

    Vacuum for barn?

    I Would Use A Shop - Vac Industrial Model... I suggest a Shop - Vac Industrial model, they are rugged, well built, and easy to use. They also can handle wet enviroments, and pretty much suck up anything. I find the older Industrials better built than the latest models.

    Air-Way Sanitizor Model 77 Wands...

    For Parts, Your Best Choice Would Be... For parts, I would suggest looking for a junker. an old beat up airway that is cheap, that would keep it close to original and not cost a fortune. best place to find those is in the garage of an estate sale or on eBay.
