Worked on the Harley Today

Haven't had a chance to work on the Harley much but I have been researching parts and studying the repair manual that I now have....I coated the seam on the tank and a couple of bad places with filler and I did some wet sanding today...Its taking shape ...Kinda starting to look like something that could possibly resemble a motorcycle someday :-)

Paint Strip and Primer

I've stripped off the old paint and painted primer on the parts...it took a few days working a couple hours each evening..I finished the primer today...I will have to work the middle of the tank and a few spots here and there so there will be a little more primer to spray but not much...
