Bit of an update.

It's been beastly hot here for the last 10 days or so, so I haven't ventured much into the realm of skinned knuckles. With a west facing garage door, the afternoons are a bit wilty in there.

I am replacing all incandescent bulbs with LEDs. And there are A LOT of them. Four 1157, three 1156, and eight 53 bulbs. Thank you, ebay HK. That saved a bundle.

The dash panel has, in the past, had some brake fluid or some kind of solvent spilled on it that boogered up the surface. Also cracked in a few places. The cracks have been fixed and the bumpy surface smoothed out. Hopefully will get a coat of gloss black on it this afternoon.

Don't know how much will get accomplished next week as the Worlds Cutest Granddaughter will be visiting and unless I can interest her in Grandpas' bike, there will be many tea parties to attend.

:wink:
