Tank, cap and petcock arrived from Dennis Kirk today - needless to say i was pretty excited and of course pretty worried when i sat it on the frame - it looked kinda big, but with wheels and seat in place it loked like it could work - if it wont then i know a man who can make it work :)

Wood Workin Weekend
Frame Magic
Got the frame back from Dans Signs in north Raleigh, they did a decentish job, enough to see the shite welds left to grind and most of the Bondo has been taken off and now i can replace it with JBWeld so that if decide to powdercoat then we're quids in.
I say decentish job as the bearing cups werent sufficiently masked and now the chrome is fucked in places - ho hum - looks like they will be replaced now even though they were in decent shape - still i could powder coat them or something.
I'm expecting good things tomorrow as the tank arrives along with a bloody expensive gas tap (petcock - bizarre name)
