Looking really cool...does that tool box stay?

Thanks. N not sure if this exact tool box will stay. Might go with 2 ammo boxes off the side. But I need to hide small battery and wires and switches. Might go compressor route and not c02 so it's just there for ideas. But eventually will have some sort of box on the bike

Hey Buba,

Got my truck back from the shop and I have been working on it when I have time vs the bike. Ill get back to it in the near future. Im going to head down to the long beach hot rod swap meet sunday (same place as bike swap) and look for parts for the truck and bike....but then I plan on pulling my engine...rebuilding it.....rewiring the truck.....cleaning the firewall and painting the engine and engine bay to make it very CLEAN looking.....ill squeeze some bike work in there as well and post some updates soon....

thanks for asking.

Thanks.....never would paint it. Took me a long time to find one with the look I was going for......funny I popped out on a side street with my truck and was a couple blocks from you and almost swung by your pad to say hello and see some cool bikes but didnt want to roll through unannounced
