Well the Fellas started work on my rig. I am so stoked to get this baby dolled up. Drivetrain is getting the face lift and body stays as is. Bill from Lime Street was Stoked to check out original paint on the bottom of the gas tank.

I'm not working on it, if I was it would be in boxes sold off in a fire sale 3 years from now. It's at Henry Welch's place along with Bill from Lime street.

original paint on the bottom of the gas tank. ----------------------------- I remember finding a 1948 dime when I took mine out. Embedded in much dirt and gunk.

The over drive was brand new in the box. Now if I could just find a set of old school warn hubs that would be the icing on the cake.

Things are moving along quite nicely. Drivetrain in with the Over Drive.
   Started putting the body.   I'm chomping at the bit.
