        • XJ1100 From The Past

          Here's a XJ11 I owned back in 98 that was pretty close to being in showroom condition....
          This was just after I bought it, thereafter I painted the main stand cause of good old battery acid
          doing a number on it, thankfully that was the only piece that was affected...
          Sorry for the quality of the pics, but these are pictures of pictures,
          at least you can blow them up to view them better

            • Looks great Greg

              New paint? Spill some gas did we?

              I am guessing you got a good finish from the two part clear.

              See you Saturday!

              • Yup. Every time I would have an error in judgement at the gas pump it would mess it up. It had been repaired so many times it was like looking at the surface of the moon when I looked down at it.

                I put the two part urethane clear on it. It didn't polish up as well as I hoped after sanding but I think that's just the way urethane is. It better keep the gas spills at bay.
