    Just colour sanding and polishing parts. Here are a couple more pieces done.  I have the bed and running boards left to do.

    Your secret’s safe with us Ian!  Sad to say, but you may have to move more bits indoors as summer is coming to an end – sigh..  Good news is: you have the winter to put it all together!  See you at the Draggins’ show at Easter!!!  Heh, heh.

    Haha Thanks. Yeah unfortunately it looks like it might be but who knows with the weather it was 28 here Monday and is suppose to go down to -2 tonight so a bit of a swing.

    Looks great Ian!

    I always laugh when I se pics like the one you posted of the fenders in the house.

    Back when I was younger you could always tell a real biker from a wannabe by the fact that the real bikers kept their rides in the house.  🙂

    Starting to go back together. Just have to sweet talk the wife to get her to help put the box back on.

    Okay.  Now the excitement is really starting to build!

    Reminder on the wall – ha, ha!  I had little “notes to self” all over the place while doing mine..  Of course in my case old age prevents me from remembering stuff without them!!  Looking good Ian!

    I have been wondering how you are progressing Ian. Looks Great !.

    I write stuff on the back of my shop door. LOL

    I’m still searching for a new project but it looks like it may be back to wooden boats for me so I am getting my customs fix by watching what you and others are doing.

    Well not much for progress as I was out of the country all last week for work and then came home and caught a nasty cold. That and the fact that, as I have heard from others, nothing seems to go back together quite as easily on final assembly (or I misjudged the order things had to be assembled) means things have been a little slow. The grill shell assembly took a frustratingly long time to get everything together on.

    Sorry to hear that you caught your cold so early this year (hope it’s the only one you catch).  Now, where are your post-its??

    p.s.  The grill looks even better now with the colour surrounding it!

    I love it Ian… that grille looks so good surrounded with that Ayala color.
