Monday that little stand will have the cowl, visor and stone deflector on it, the hood still hanging and both fenders in front of it. Counters are covered in paint supplies with a compressor and kerosene heater on the floor too. I'll be in a tight squeeze trying not to brush up against anything LOL Still have to hang cables for the fenders and will have to fill the gun up twice in that tiny space.

Damn. Can't beat that. I'll be thrilled if I can get my 2 doors lined up half decent. I'm digging the lines with the frenched emblems. I wasn't sure about them but really it looks right. The line almost follows the profile of the hood and fender. Get some paint on it!
