    So I had some mis matched Torq-Thrusts in the garage, so I traded for some that would fit. Haven't painted the front spokes yet, I don't know if I like them. Maybe needs thin redlines?

    That was quick! I just got back from Florida, didn't even sit down, just opened the box and went to the tire shop for a quick swap. I'll hit 'em with some Westley's after I paint the spokes.

    It's not creased, easy fix this winter when Levi paints her. Thanks for the compliments.

    i clicked on this expecting it to look we-todd-did. i was pleasantly surprised. the pinners and natural finish of the t-t's really make it happen. it's sort of be a shame to make it all shiney. i hope it stays that color.

    I'm going with the same color, but shiney. She's ugly now, needs makeup.

    A previous owner put in airbags, so she actually IS touching the ground. I need to install some bump stops in case of emerengcy.
