Purchased as a basket case, blasted and painted. Custom tank made, melted (pay attention to the cautions in the KREEM instructions), remade ( thanks Caswell sealer!) mounted. Driven for 2 days, almost get killed by some clown in a minivan. Tank all jacked up but not leaking. paint scraped to bits. Life can be a drag! I got away without a scratch. Clean living I guess. So far a top speed of 34.4 (by GPS) and planning redo.....maybe a satin black powder coat. Hmmmmm Its been a busy 2 months. I love this hobby!

That sucks you got hit by a minivan, good to hear you made it out unscathed.

She looked good in that yellow, maybe black highlights next? 'Killer Bee' effect, :)

Keep us posted, good luck.
