Its white for a reason...it hides flaws. I will probably spend a few too many hours redoing the bodywork (seems me and the PO have differing opinions on what "minimal" filler means) and then repaint. Probably to match my little race monster in a deep grey metallic, maybe with black fenders. That part of the plan is still a bit up in the air.
I am happy the conversion is done, my goal was either cosmetically perfect with mechanical issues or mechanically right with cosmetic issues. All things considered Im glad the mechanicals are done, keeps it driveable, I find I loose my enthusiasm with too much down time off the road. Although there are some bits I will redo there as well. Such as disk brakes but no power, still alot of pedal travel between moving and stopped. And other little issues but overall its mechanically sound. | | | |
