    what color are you going to paint the engine?

    i think jet black, with silver highlights like, kickstarter, bolt heads, nuts, shifter, and cylynder head, so all cases black and cylynder....with silver head...

    but any color would look good...
    Wanna race? ;-)

    The seat cover was bought from www.hi-flite.com. Excellent quality.

    As far as the engine goes.......its going to get the whole nine yards. Port and polish, reeds, bored over and a bigger carb. All new seals and any bearings that need to be replaced.

    As far as engine colour. I was thinking flat black and polish the fins on the head. Not too sure yet.....You guys gave me a few good ideas.

    Shockwears, I bought from www.royaldistributing.com here in Canada. The only ones that would fit were for a snowmobile. So I had to buy a pair. They have many different colours and styles to choose from.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    452x,

    Yeah that looks sweet. Now thats one serious machine..... That is something like what I was thinking of. I was thinking flat black though....kinda steathly look to it. I am not too sure how it will look though. I guess if i don't like the flat black finish...i can just paint over it.

    that looks incredible. what did you use to paint the plastic? is it going to crack and flake off? or were yu able to buy black plastic. i have never had any luck with painting plastic it sems to flake off even with this krylon fusion paint.

    The plastic is from Maijer....and yes you can buy it black from factory. The tank shrouds and headlight case are painted using Krylon fusion paint. Its supposed to be the best thing for painting plastic. I beg to differ.

    Ps. John, why are you selling your hard labour?
