I see you've been pretty busy! Lots of progress since I was by to see it. Did you use the fenders you had on the wall or did you find different ones?
I hope to see you driving it around the area! | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 466 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 466 | Now a picture is worth 2000 words, that is great!

Are you giong to put some step plates on your running boards to keep from scratching that beautyful paint job? George | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 210 Member | | Member Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 210 | Inky Fenders were painted when you were here. I had them hiding in the basement(the one my wife is GLAD to get back)
No on the running boards. we'll see how the scratching goes.
Thanks for all the compliments. I will be taking the burb around town as soon as the license and such are taken care of.
I have someone putting a custom exhaust on it soon and I still have to do some brake and clutch adjusting and touch ups but am REALLY excited to show it to the other folks who looked at it and said it was too far gone and show it to the PO. \Thanks again' Jim | | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 122 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 122 | Jim,
That is just beautiful!!!!! I don't think I have ever seen another burb fixed up anywhere near as nice. Congradulations. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 156 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 156 | Man...What a Ride....Great!!
