Another small update from yesterday, fell asleep before the photo's uploaded to photobucket and I could write it last night. .
Didn't get started until 3pm as I got roped into some other things, gardening and back to brothers house for a few other bits and bobs.
Plan was to get the seatbox ends changed, and then prepped and primed.
Job was easy enough to do and the YRM panels fitted lovely.
Hardest part of the job was the paint prep, getting the old glue residue off where the carpet had been.
about
Anyway, got it into primer late evening.
I had planned to leave it there, but had some tea and decided to just carry on and splash some top coat on it.
And did the rear spats.
Now that should be it for the paint, and the spats/seatbox where the last things to do, used every last drop of thinners/hardener last night, but.. I need to re-do the tub and bulkhead again as everything seems to be coming out the lighter colour now, luckily I've still got some paint left over to do it.
Could do with doing that asap as it's stopping me doing other jobs, just need to decide how/where/when I'm going to do it and then I can crack on with the rest of it.
Todays plan I think is to just get the battery box riveted on, been told I'm painting the fence today
