With Christmas stuff and just being beat I have missed getting out for my five minutes over the last few days. I got out there today and finished up the frame so it is ready for powdercoating. It had a few dents and they are all fixed now. The "cart" thingies I made needed a bit of work too and I got that done. Removed the shackle shafts and put some oil on them so the hole they go in will be protected when sand blasting and powedercoating.

Now, I have to find something to do while I am waiting for the powder coating. One of the things is get all the springs and axle to get it rolling. I have to pull the rear end apart next I am thinking.
