Hi guys and gals,


I have been at this project for almost 2 years. Being recently retired, I am able to spend as much time on it as my energy level will allow. LOL There are just a few minor items to sort out, but it runs great and everything works. I will post final pics when finished. BTW

This has been a lifelong dream of mine and it is coming to life at the young age of 67. Once a gearhead, always a gearhead.


Dave

Excellent job David. I especially liked the neat and intricate wire harness you made up. You don't see many as cool as that.

Dave, age is just a number. But at least you now have all the time to play!

Really cool ride man, I hope you drive it like you stole it

Way 2 go Dave. I love the time and thought that obviously went into the entire ride. Best compliment I can give you -- BITCHIN -- and you are gonna love driving that ride. Nicely done.
