John Teresi Posted October 25, 2014 Author Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) Hello........thank you all so very much for the warm welcome back........... and for following along again with this build........it`s great to be back at the bench.........I got color on the tank,fender and primary cover ........it is Dupont Dale Jaret Red........with a clear coat........then I used some "Flamin Mask" and airbrushed Tamiya yellow for the flames........I need to clean up the edges a little and give another clear coat........they are not perfect but,good enough for the girls I go with .......thanks for looking.

gasser59 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 All is right with the world, john's back at his bench and putting stuff out like crazy. Outstanding update. With the big engine and small gas tank I'm not sure this would go very far. This isn't a dig on you John, that's how the original looks.
