    Looks great, I like the holes in the boxed section of the frame.

    This weekend i got the body and bed aligned and bolted back to frame.
    I couldn´t ever imagine how much time and patience it would take to get everything work properly (like doors for example).

    The monotonic color comination looks nice, the Edmund&Jones´ really rule! I like it, really no billet in this time bomb! Looking forward your gorgeous windshield there! It will suit perfectly with the new head lamps and wire wheels! Nice work, Jaypee.

    First fire up and maiden run is done. Everything went pretty ok, exept one leaking 97. After fixing the carb the fun began. I feel sooooo happy now.
    Will post pics later...
