I can do it, I'm just trying to avoid the expense to Craig for all the changeover, parts, wheels, etc. I talked with my dealer friend in NJ this morning and he's gonna look around, if he can't get or find one then we'll have to go another route.

Got the step treads done, made some new cables, the harness and cables are back in with new switches, the rear fender was prepped and painted today, now everything is painted except the hood and wheels I think... :thumb1

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

Thanks Kurt + Nappy. :thanks

Everything is hooked up to the engine, adjusted, and it's ready to run. A few more parts are also done and put on. :thumb1

The rear tires are here and I made a little tire + wheel family lol. :jump1 I have another one here from the Alabama coast that's getting the other front tri ribs so I painted them all at once. I'm checking with everyone tomorrow morning and if no one has found a rear wheel I'll have to move on with plan B.

I was waiting for you to have one. :smile2

I guess we'll start with the deck. Got out early this morning while it was cool and there was shade in my pressure washing spot and got the deck all cleaned up, and gave the forklift a much needed bath. Then it got prepped, some things taken off, everything is painted and all put back together. :thumb1

Terry had to make a decal for the deck he didn't have, the deck decals should be here end of this week.
