Project Blackwing
« on: June 28, 2013, 01:41:56 PM »
I'm finally finished with the Blackwing project. I know I posted a pic it two before, but she's now all done. Last piece was the front fender.

I took these pics, but I have professional photos done. I may post those soon.

She's going to her new home tomorrow. Sure hope the owner likes her!

I will get more photos up soon. I had another thread of it going, but I will make this one the new thread for the build.
Thanks for the comments.
