Perch metalwork finished

[Gerry]

The whole thing has been sprayed outdoors. Reason is that I am running it raw for the first 1000 miles or so. Then it will be torn down and sprayed in a booth. Also this has shown me where I need to be real careful on build up, that is all the places I managed to dig the paint. On rebuild I know exactly where to be careful to avoid that chip or scratch on the brand new paint.

Low and behold the wind just quit so a quick shot of yella and heres the result. When its all repainted it should look quite nice.

Now I have got to blend the body around the perch to match it. Probably wont do this till the repaint. Wiring next

Gerry, That is a Wild looking tank, turned out mighty fine

 

[Keeper]

That looks great.

They sure do make you run a lot of lights!

 

[Gerry]

Turn signals, tail light, stop light, rear fog light and reflectors. Great isn't it.

BTW: don't they also force you to run fenders "over there"? will those be in the plans for the future?

No swearing on this site "fenders" I can't wait to see the tail light setup Gerry comes up with.Maltese lights might look cool

 

[Gerry]

fenders are required by the legislation but a lot of guys dont bother. You may get a fix it ticket or if they are feeling real mean a fine. You are so right. fenders is a swear word, split cough spit and spit again.

Rear lights. Ah well, now... we are in to LEDs in the back corner of the body at this time. Sort of a bit fluid till I can find something else that might light my torch so to speak
