Fresh Paint and Stripes!

I got my tank and fenders back from O'Neill's Auto Body in New Holland Pa.  Over all it looks great - there's a couple dust specks I may want them to buff out, but that's it.  I think the pinstripes look fantastic - I was worried about those since I insisted on hand striping.

I also shimmed the wheels and got everything else where it should be.  I shouldn't have to mess with the chassis again.

Now I just need my engine back from Tom Cutter at Rubber Chicken Racing and my mufflers from Epco Mufflers.  Cutter was in an accident recently, so that will slow his schedule.  Epco feeds me an excuse whenever I call, but I'm pretty sure I'll get them eventually.

Then I just have to finish the wiring and run the cables once the engine is in!  I think I'll be lucky to have it done this season, but we'll see.
