When do you think it will be blown apart for paint and plating?

It is already looking sick!

**superflysteiny** · 03-05-2013, 04:48 PM

It's already blown apart. The parts are already at chrome. The orange will be at powder coat by Thursday

Thanks Nate did a great job on the frame. But I changed some things on it and gave it a few of my own touches

I use a regular tube bender that you can buy at any autoparts store. But To flare I use the mastercool flaring tool. It is very expensive but you will have zero leaks if you prep the line correctly

Thank you I am glad your in

69CST-V · 03-06-2013, 04:22 PM

Eric, are you going to do anything to the zick coating or just run it as is from the plater? I just know from prior applications that it will form a haze or film after being exposed to the elements. Just curious on your tricks or thoughts on it.

**superflysteiny** · 03-06-2013, 04:26 PM

All the hardware will be polished stainless, I have it on order and it shouls be here next week.

DLOE65 · 03-07-2013, 02:42 AM
