I know, you all thought I sold both projects and was just a lurker!

Well, I've been doing the body work dance. Nothing exciting to show for the work.

However, this is my first attempt at "Body Bumping" and I am impressed. When I do it right, it actually works!!! I have worked on a couple of rear fender tails that I saved to use on the 54. I welded and ground and "bumped" and they look pretty good. Then I started on the rider's side for the 48.

My arms are dead and I'm whipped, so pictures tomorrow.
