Just power washed this stuff. Still have a few things to take off the frame, before I wire wheel it and the wheels too.

Re did the muffler in high temp paint, looks like new, was able to tape off the original sticker on the oil bath filter and save it, got a pulley and some engine parts done.

Outstanding restoration! Are you using hardener with your paint?

[AlwaysLookin80 1,308]

Thank you sir. No just right out of the quart.

Frame is a little more work then I assumed to get cleaned correctly. May go past the dead line but oh well. 

[WHX?? 49,485]

Nice work... some day I am going to learn to paint like that! 

[AlwaysLookin80 1,308]

Well after about a month delay, I finally got the frame and engine painted. Will start assembly in 2 days so the paint can dry.
