peter lena 8,628 #11 Posted April 5 @Sodaking27 nice pick up on that , while you are thinking / looking this over for what's goin on , how about a very easy / simple , penetrating oil spray down ? that not too bad neglected / finish is at perfect recovery stage , aerosol penetrating oil , spray down , all painted areas , let it sit a couple of days , while you are doing other stuff . oil is feeding / starved paint , clean it off gentle rub in ,with a clean oiled cloth , thats the first stage , paint will look deeper , fresher , cleaner . have used a 6 " electric palm buffer , with a cleaner wax , easy recovery stage . that auger , bend points , 2 adjustable wrenches , working in OPOSET directions on the same spot will easily bring it back to shape , new seat , MOTHERS back to black , cleaner in black painted areas / plastic . personally like RISLONE ZINK oil additive , for a base line fresh start on any engine , 2 oz per qt of oil , makes engines run without effort / also sound better / smoother / easier , only a suggestion . lots to do , looks like a keeper , pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
