Nice looking cruiser you've got there! What size tires are those? Looks like they fit the wheel wells nicely.

So is this something that you will do once in a lifetime kind of thing?

I’m no pro, but I have most of the right tools for the job. Took me about 4 hours to tear down the first one and get it cleaned up enough that I could reassemble if looks didn’t matter. Second one took just a little more than an hour to tear down.

Now, I’m in the deep cleaning phase, because I’m going to paint everything and make it look new before I reassemble it.

Here’s my timeline.
Day 1: An evening of learning and wallowing in grease as I tear down the first one.
Day 2: go to the store for more rubber cloves, paper towels and a gallon size tub of grease…. Tear down the second side with remarkable ease, now that I know how it’s done. Clean, clean, clean. Mask and paint.
Day 3: assembly and celebration (hopefully. Ask me tomorrow)

Beer helps the process along.
