Probably won't be able to make the Drift In.
Imma play my cards close to the chest for a while.
I have a feeling some people will like it and a lot of people will think it's a waste of time and money.
That's why I invested in new fenders and a tank and will store the originals.
But my sketches look good and the concept is something I've wanted my whole life.

Nothing happened. Still have the original fenders, soon to be in storage.
I'm just going for a total change of clothes.
Got the paint started yesterday.  It'll be a while, but I can't wait to show you guys and gals!

SO you, too - what colors you going with?  If it's not too soon to share???

On this note--what about the rear fender?
I picked up a couple fiberglas fenders from Oldys for my winter project.
They seem ok, I suppose, but they aren't drilled and I need to remove the originals for proper reference.

The rear isn't as hard as it looks either.  Not really bad at all.

So what happened to your original fenders that you're replacing??

Can't wait to see the paint job jmbo, please post pics when all done!

I removed the front wheel of a bike (my Drifter) for the first time last week.  Surprised at how easy and quick it was.

Yes, it isn't really hard - not near as much work as it looks like it would be.

JMBO:  +1 on the pic request.   What colors are you going with?  I'm toying with a 2-tone color scheme myself, but can't decide exactly what colors I want.
