Good choice! The darts were just calling for this. Looking great!

I thought about doing different connecting scallopping like every other dart or something. But this is best. Similar to what I did with VerBoten, but I didn't have to color between the lines with this rubbing UNpainting.

It all looks good KF! Hope your back and shoulders are holding up.


Thanks man, after a few breaks and then going out to dinner, I was ready for the final round of the big rubbing.

After dinner, I went back out to the shop and did the rubbing on the chainguard extension, carrying on the pattern

The last major rubbing was the drive side skirt fin, so I knocked it out too.

Wet from rain this morning, but there is a chance it will ckear up later. No major paint needs left, so I am going through checklist of small things.

Glued the U.S. to the Western Flyer Uncle Stretch headbadge
