The frame is now applied with the first fresh layer of paint, one extra to go. Meanwhile I also did get this petrol tank on offer! (thanks Vincent) There's some serious work on the pertol tank because it's rotten through on several places, so let say it's genuine challenge to get this one right! :lol:
