    Does it look like the inlet had some work done to it? Looks a little different than mine. Either way. What is your price for all you got there!?

    I forgot to mention I ran a dowel with some tape through the center to allow me to rotate the wheel while painting.

    then put thin layers of bondo to feather these areas back to shape. This also took some time. Having the high build primer around these areas also helped while sanding so that I wouldn’t sand into the raw material. After I felt it was close I hit it with primer and sanded a handful of times with...

    I sprayed a few layers of high build primer on to try and fill the hairline cracks but also bring out the imperfection as little more. Also after this I took a Dremel tool and dug out the cracks clear down to the metal rod inside. While doing this I tried to undercut the crack to allow epoxy to...

    At first I tried to fill them with epoxy as I have seen that online. Unfortunately after sanding and then letting sit in the sun I was able to determine the epoxy either didn’t cure properly or didn’t mix properly. It was flexible and would expand. Which then exposed the crack.

    Yup seen it and they don’t want to budge on the price. Which I don’t really blame them. As hard as it’s been to find and then to be restored as well as that one seems to be. It’s worth a pretty penny forsure. I’m thankful I have one. Just need to gently restore it In hopes I don’t make it...

    So far it has not been easy. Although I have found that I missed a few opportunities on some that came up on mud. I’ve checked with mark and also checked on classic cruisers. But have not reached out to classic cruisers about it specifically so I might try that. But I am still on the search...
