what i accomplished today..

[tecateman]

so today i built a rolling cart/stand for my build. old adjustable rack system. i put new wheels on it and put it together and added carpet to protect powdercoat. ill probably cover the shelf on the bottom in the same carpet.

 

also portmatched the bottom case..

 

and finally struggled getting tires off the wheels. got one off im cutting off the rest. just did enough today plus running to lowes etc. these are original shee wheels really beat up big chunks gauges etc...

 

but with a lil elbow grease...

still have to polish.

 

sorry for the crappy phone pics. my camera is charging.

What exactly did you do to the lower cases??

NYUK lives in blackwood NJ I think...

[tecateman]

wacko port matching. i didnt do the top yet because i dont have cylinders yet.

 

yes nyuck lives in my town. thats where i bought frame and parts from. hes very convenient but i fear i may pay for his kids college fund if this keeps up. hahaha

what did you do exaclty as far as port matachin on the bottom end lol? Looks like you ruffed it up a little but i dont think there is any ports to match.

well whatever they call it, i did it lol. supposed to help with fuel atomization. its only halfway done. ill do the top cases when i get my cylinders this week and gasket.

today i finished up the stand/rack. i cut the uprights down and wrapped the bottom shelf in carpet and ziptied everything nice.

 

also managed to get all 4 stock crappy tires off the rims. oh and i paid for my cylinders and stuff today. working on my build is getting addictive lol. :headbang
