I`m in recovery but it`s from all that flying sand.....
Hopefully and depending on the weather I`ll get the frame painted soon and get it off the rotisserie, start putting the 53 back together this week.
That will be alot more exciting than the 6.0 B-day...

I was undecided but black seems to be the best color.
It`s a satin black, gloss black may look better. I could spray it as the Zero Rust isn`t completely cured this morning.

Powder coating frames is done once in a while, I was thinking of it but the place I liked dealing with blew themselves up last winter.....They re-lit the oven without purging the natural gas first and there was a big explosion that destroyed the building.
Apparently they aren`t rebuilding.

I was hoping they would rebuild and continue on with the business.
They were good to deal with and their prices seemed ok with great service.
I`ll have to find out what`s up.
