WELL THE FUN HAS BEGUN I AM TEARING IT APART IN LOU OF PAINT AND FIX ALL THE STUFF THAT NEEDS TO GET FINISHED UP.

YOU CAN SEE THE CAB IS BEING BUILT, JOHNSON BAR GOT ANOTHER NOTCH FOR REV AND THE WATER GLASS GOT A UNION ON THE BOTTOM SO I COULD TIGHTEN IT DOWN AND IT WON'T LEAK , TONS OF TENDER TID BITS ARE BEING CUT OUT AND AQUIRED TO PUT ON.

THE LEAD TRUCK HAD A SMALL ISSUE UPON DISASSEMBLE THE FRONT SPRINGS WERE A LITTLE LIGHT AND ALLOWED THE AXLE TO GET INTO THE EQ ARM FOR THE LEAD TRUCK I HAVE FIXED THAT AND CLEANED UP THE AXLE AND ORDERED A LITTLE HEAVIER FRONT SPRING FOR THE THIS.

SMOKE BOX IS GETTING TORN APART TO GET THE FINAL TOUCHES OF THE PETTY COAT PIPE AND ALSO TO GET ALL THE DECOR RIVETS AND THEN TO GET A SHINY SILVER PAINT.  SHE SHOULD LOOK DAMN SPORTY WHEN ALL FINISHED UP.
