I didn't like the shade of red I painted it so I picked up some Duplicolor Metal specs OEM Buick Red. I scuffed everything with 220 wet paper and top coated it and cleared it with duplicolor clear. I like this alot better.

Thanks, it has a nice metalflake gitter that the pics didn't pick up. $12 a can though. Oh well, this may be the only bike I have a chance to do this year so I won't complain too much. :roll: :wink:

I started assembling last night. I hope to finish tomorrow with any luck. My computer died so we bought a new one and will hopefully have it up tomorrow also. My son let me borrow his laptop tonite but I can't hook the camera up to it.
But I know one thing, when I get this bad-boy together and solve all the other related dilemmas, you guys are in big trouble! :P :lol: :lol: Heh, heh, heh!!!
