Well its 18+ years old now it needed attention so I opened the body shop. And I will never I repeat never do it again. I simply cannot get up and down that many times again. Even with the lift it was a bad experience, for me as well as all that had to put up with me. so here are the Pics...Before DSC01874.JPGDSC01872.JPGDSC01876.JPGDSC01875.JPG AfterDSC01880.JPGDSC01890.JPGDSC01891.JPGDSC01894.JPGDSC01898.JPGBody work sucks... all I have to say all panels were glued on with fuser epoxy I have a friend assure me it was stronger than welding the new panels on I had to make the inner panels glued and screwed on My friend said it should last longer than the originals.

Well thank you :shades: However really my dear Father taught me to be self reliant never let someone else do what you can do for yourself. More sheckels for Harley stuff.
 
My Son and I did a Frame up on a 1944 Jeep that was over 20++ years ago got it to 90% then when our patients wore out waiting for bits And pieces to finish he got an offer he could not refuse and sold it...

That was the first and last time we tried something like that! I admire your patience Fred .

👍👍
 
Got and never did have body work patience. I’ll do the mechanical end any day. Keep going Fred.:clapping:
