Just an update on the Bucket .. I have been working on it when I get the chance ,,, I have been looking at this thing for a long time and I just had to have some color ..I mean it is spring time the world is full of color so why not soften my drab gray metal and black bucket and put some life on it,, Hopefully my buddy will finish the motor this next week and if he does that will put a fire under my um well you know what. Still allot of little finishing up stuff to do but here it is as of today /
By the way don't bust my chops to hard about the mess I get scolded pretty regular from my better half,,
