hahah,

For sure..

I talked to my painter last night..apparently he has this virus called the G.I. virus which was brought over from Iraq...so he doesnt want me out there for a few days till he is feeling better...but he said he is going to do the body work starting today.

Trust me...once it is done...there will be PLENTY of new photos!

Sounds like a load of crap.

Kinda funny though, ever heard of the G.I. Bill, I imagine he's using that somehow.

The only GI virus I've ever heard of is one that doesn't even affect humans, it affects computers

Yea I dont know...but ive been out there all of last week and he was definately legitimately sick...looked and sounded the part. I dont care if its an excuse or not...as long as he sticks to his plan on doing the body work without me there...then im fine with that

In regards to the old fenders...I think the plan is going to be: bend some tubing to run around the outside edge...for protection...then cut out all the old sheet metal...then lay fresh stuff down and use them as offroad fenders...somewhat like the MT tube fenders...only homemade...and shi*ty looking

Awsome build can't wait to see the finished ride. Great work.
