You put my seat in it..looks good Bro!

[bigblock68]

missed my deadline by a mile...but some progress in the 3 or so months since my last post.got the hood painted and on last week,it fit awesome...i was a little concerned since i had not test fit it,got real lucky there.the bed is now painted and i need to get the wood done and get the bed installed. bodywork on rear fenders is just about finished...so while it isnt finished yet i'm still happy its looking more like a truck than a pile of parts.

CROME will get you home. When I was in a bike group that was our moto. If someone seen a broke down bike if he had lots of crome people would stop and help, but if it was a ratt bike people would screem on by. just a note.

TTT....updates??? I know your workin' on it.

[thelonerife]

I like your color choice. Good job!

[bigblock68]

Rear fenders are in primer,those and the steps are the last of the painting...it seems a lot tougher to get out in shop after work when its cold and raining out and its been dark since 4:30 pm.I have all the pieces to finish it so it shouldnt be long...will post some pics when I have something that looks like progress!!

[butternut1972]

Tell your Boss to give you some time off so you can work on it.

[808_67C10]

Can you snap a few more pics of ur rear bag set up? I like the way you put them on the inside of the frame. Would like to see more...

Aloha!

[bigblock68]

here are a few shots of the rear that i have saved

[808_67C10]

Nice, thank you! I like the simplicity... And it's all hidden.
