SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

I am sorry guys ..... I have not kept this up to date.
Progress is slow on it at times.
After welding the main chassis I decided I was gonna paint the frame red instead of hiding it in black. This lead to more work towards 100% finish all the chassis whatnots as there will not be any add on and touch up.

So it is back together and turned around in it's corner and I am building the back end.

It has been a while since last update.
I have most of the big parts built up for the back end.
Layed up a lot of fiberglass......and the body is back off now.

No ... the project is not dead. I do work with it every chance I get.......but that only adds up to a couple hours a week.

I will eventually finish it.

I did start a new project....but is not just me.....it is a shop project and one of the guys is gonna drive (I am in my 60's and am to old and slow now).

So we gonna go dirt dragging.
