well as i was saying i restarted this project. anything that could be removed was removed and had sand thrown at it.
now as you can tell rustoleum is my best friend. Wet sanding with many more coats in store.

well now we know what color it is, starting to put together some of it this week.
stay tuned it should be a constant flow of data from now on.
my dead line is a july 10 show in crown point Indiana
besides this one i have two more for the show
a barn fresh 604 that needs a belt and governor work
and the YARDHAND needs to be woke up from winter storage.
