Hey Wanna do mine?

Great Job Jim!I'm jealous...my bike needs exactly what you're doing...my engine looks like crap and so does all the other metal finishes.If you had to pay someone to do that kind of work...it problably would run into alot of money..for sure.I haven't seen my bike look this good in many many yearsYou maybe new to this forum but I'd say you know your way around these bikes like a Guru!You could open a restoration business...I'd be your 1st customer!

Bring it up here i enjoy doing it. There is not a huge cost in the paint and other stuff you need to do this its a time thing and i would never be able to pay someone the time i have in mine I am retired kinda now so this is what i do for fun well i do cars also am in the middle of doing a 1964 Galaxie wagon also.
