Talking Re: Serious Black

well, not much going on right now, working ten hour days, but I did score a Van Tilt from board member Ls1nova71 (Eric) so now I'm painting that, getting it ready for installation, just did the neutral/reverse light switch mod, bought new turn signal stalk/shifter arm and tilt levers. details you know. started installing my beltline trim and lower trim, talk about nervous as hell.....
I did find that using an old "Door Bumper" rubber bumper placing it over the drill bit, kept me from slamming the chuck into my freshly painted sheet metal....I also used 1/4" pin striping tape to lay down the center line for all my hole locations and used the factory shop manual as a guide for locating the approximate locations for each hole. well, I have to get to work, pictures to follow.
