Heres a shot showing the new fuel tank. It doesn't look to bad but maybe a rear roll pan to hide it is in order.
I am so close to being able to tear this thing apart for sandblasting! |
Paintman,
Can you get some measurements from the bottom of the frame at the spindle and the bottom of the cross member (front) to the ground.
Are you going to have any trouble clearing "speed bumps" or maybe you do not have any where you live!
What size front tires are you using?
Thank for the help
