Dropped the F Body off at Rockys this morning for him to work some of his paint magic

Cool bike or what





PhilO's bits were looking good :


Roadkill

I'm pretty sure that was the bike I saw (before paint) when I popped down there to pick the fuel tank up.

Either way -

Has all that polishing worn through the paint then?

No the Hole Punch I dropped dented the bonnet

So now is the best time to get the stone chips done as well

Shes a lucky girl as the models dont even get to sit on that bike at the pro custom shows,
Good to meet you all today.

Think the bike you saw Roadkill is still on the ramp.

I'm not a bike person but I've watched American Chopper of course and I have to say that Rocky's bike looks leagues ahead of theirs because that frame looks like a full custom job to me whereas they seem to just buy most bits in and bolt them together and add a few custom touches.  The only bike they ever did that really impressed me was the Black Widow spider one as the chrome web work (spaced) over the bodywork was really impressive.

I love the smooth flowing lines of Rockys bike though, A1 !!!

Orange county now do their own frames but keep messing the measurements up.

Repair piccys
Dent removed and primed



Basecoat and clear applied, was a pain as it had lots of silicone from the cleaners i should think which had to be dealt with in each coat.



I touched in front wing and rear quarter


Just got to mop bonnet and finish mirror.

When you say "mop" I assume it's a finishing term and not an actual mop

Yep will cut it back and polish it.

Seems strange looking at my baby in pieces being repaired
But as I said although it's not a daily driver it does get driven and therefore after seven years she was bound to have picked up some wear and tear

Really looking forward to seeing her finished

All in a good cause.

I need to make a visit to have a few things on the Caddy sorted out.
Just need to somehow get time off work...
