The colors are the perfect combo

Thanks!

Today, I wired the taillights and plumbed the bags...

 

[bell]

And installed the fuel cell... just gotta plumb the fuel line and brake lines... and the back half will be basically done!

Making me miss the 26’…………..a little.

You’ve done an awesome job, looks like a fun summer ahead. [cl

 

[bell]

Thanks bub! I am getting really excited about summer!

I noticed your '26 is in this month's "ol school rodz" CONGRATS!

 

[SugarRay8]

Thanks, it was cool to see it in there.

 

[bell]

Getting closer all the time!

Nice job on the tunnel. Looks great.
Are those rivots or screws?

 

[SugarRay8]

Looks like the same style fork truck seat(s) that I used in mine.
Everything looks great!
Get ready; it’s going to have a crowd around it everywhere it goes.

Thanks fellers!

They are stainless, button head, allen... 1/4-20 bolts, so I can remove the panels if need be.

Very nice Bell.....

Thanks sarge! I should be finishing up the brake lines and disc conversion today! Weather is supposed to be good, so might be able to take her for a spin later!

 

[bell]

Brake lines are done, trans cooler lines are done! All wiring is completed, except for the stereo... should be finishing up the disc conversion in the morning! Spent most of the evening getting my sanity back... (cleaning the shop) lol

 

[bell]

Speedway disc conversion is done! Had a problem with some inferior hardware (nylock nuts too soft... stripped out before reaching specified torque), but otherwise I am very happy with the kit! High quality and great fit/finish! Kudos to speedy Bill!

Drove it around town several times, and a short jaunt on the main road to get it up to highway speed... very pleased with the shakedown run! Glass, roof and a few other minor things and it will be ready for show/ cruising season!

 

[Uncle Jimi]

Very Nice! I like the paint scheme. The black accents make a nice touch.

I must have cabin fever. I thought you said "A few more things and it will be ready for snow!"

Must...Get....into....shop...*gasp*...(crawl)...[S

 

[bell]

Nothing real exciting, but I cut the windshield frame down today. I took the glass to the local glass shop, and the guy charged me $10 to cut it down! I gave him a 20 and told him to keep the change...

Great rod, I don't always like the longer sedans but you did yours right!!
