Well I have been killing rust thease days. I have most of it cut out in the pictures I was in the mock up stage so thats why pop rivits are holding things together.

mrsmothers · 07-15-2011, 12:50 AM

The new color for now I didnt want to be rideing around in primer so I decided to just give it a quick paint my self. Here is the new temp color.
