Got her running today. Carb is acting up and probably needs to be replaced, already tried rebuilding and it still floods....timing is off abit as well but I'll get all that sorted out in the next couple of days. I have really enjoyed working on this lil guy. I see another garage queen in my shop LOL

You did that quick.

Starting Thursday last week I have done 9 straight 12 hour days to get this far along. Today only did 3 hours worth painting the final coat of grey on the sheet metal and fenders. Tonight I will do some of the decals, Sunday I am taking the day off and going fishing. Monday will be for installing the sheetmetal and pretty much call it done and take some pics and videos. Whew, I am tired LOL...

Looks and sound good. Might have to lengthen those wires to get that tool box open.

Yup Kirk-NJ, I did make the alternator wire 6 inches longer and re-routed them along the right side of the toolbox and it opens fine now. Basically all done except for painting the red Ford scripts on the hood and installing a seat. Got lucky and found a Dearborn easy rider seat and will be working on it today.
I will get some pics and a video later on today.

All done but the seat and hood scipts. Tomorrow is another day.

First rate.

Great job and I don't mean to be picky but your sway bar brackets are on wrong. Switch them from one side to the other and they should line up.
