Man, you don't waste any time. Looks like that one is going to turn out pretty nice as well. Just noticing that bench top. Is that stainless?

I must be doing something wrong because it took me all afternoon to remove the running boards, then do a rough sand and prime job on the frame of my MF16. Last time I came that close to a complete dissasembly of an AC was my B10. That has been in the works for over 6 months. Do you sandblast these to bare metal?

Thanks Chris I haven't sandblasted annything yet ,But the seat pan on this one might need to be.I have a 3300p.s.i. preasure washer hot with a turbo tip ,it's so strong itwill take decals and a lot of paint off, It's a big time saver.

As always, that looks great. I just can't figure out where you find all this time. I'm retired and still can't keep up with all my regular chores, let alone spend the shop time I would like to. Keep up the excellent work, we all love your pictures. Even though you make us look bad.
