Here we go I made a little bit of progress, got the fenders mounted and the headlight mounted
still have to get a taillight and kickstand for it

A OS number board or even just a plate bracket on your tail light would be cool! 8)
Maybe one for the front too. :wink:
Looking Sweet, love the deep headlight.
Wow very nice!!!
This project would be awesome with a nice shiny paint job.
What a fantastic seat!!!!

I'm thinking satin paint but still not sure, I'm leaning towards olive green with creme pinstripesGdcast said:
Still looking great. Can't wait for the paint.
Satin olive green with creme pinstripes!! There goes my vote!!!
I swear I thought of that color combo yesterday!! Well, I would paint everything Olive green... :mrgreen:
How about Olive Green with either Red or Gold pinstripes. I dont think cream would compliment the green as well. But thats just me.
A cream side panel does look great, I thought we were talking pinstriping. Those tanks are perty
I bought these today on the way home but not sure if I'm going to use them as saddle bags
I have a smaller one I was thinking about putting on top of a rear rack. They sell various sizes of those at the local army navy surpluss store here. I had a similar thought for mounting one on each side of a bike like that. Kind of a theme like Pee Wee's Rat Rod. A full decked out cruiser like his but weird stuff on it. like the bullit boxes., and maltese cross mirrors and little dead animals.
With a matching paint scheme I think those would look great on your bike. It is coming out SOOOOOO nice.

Looking great man!
I think the Ammo boxes fit right in.
Anxiously awaiting the paint and finishing touches.

I'd mount them somewhat higher, if at all. :|
I say if anything build teardrop style saddlebags to match the tank. Those ammo boxes just don't do the bike justice.
Dito!
On the other hand, those are easy to modify.
I would try .30 cal boxes insted... they're slimer, more stiled...

The Tear drop bags actually sounds good might have to try that if I have time, I started do the bodywork today and I remembered why hated it
This thing just keeps getting better and better.
