Ok there so were caught up so far. Most of the body parts have been cleaned, sanded, recleaned, primed, painted and are sitting around waiting for me to paint the frame. I should take pics of the parts now, but I'll wait till my new stainless steel bolts come in to remount everything. Im afraid to even look at the rear tire, but pretty so I'll get to it. very very slowly swapping out the little things like o-rings, bearings, gaskets, AND RUSTED/STRIPPED BOLTS.
