Take it off. Take it all off.

[yes, thank you Mr. Diamond Dave for that one]



It's been a week or so of details and more details, working on the small things, trying to solve little puzzles of little things that only I will ever really know about. Yes yes, a little comment on life again. Sorry... I hate it when it does that.

[ and thanks Goose for that one ]

So last night I got a little distracted while writing up my seemingly daily shopping list for the hardware aisle of Home Depot, and decided I was gonna remove the front fender. Not because I just decided to- it's always been part of the plan and the look. But I thought it would be fun. And this build is supposed to be that; fun.



And I was amazed how instantly things seemed to change. Better. Mo better. Just dropping some bits onto the floor created a nice reaction. Yes- that one was intentional. The point is, she's becoming closer to what I've been seeing in my head for months now. Just by getting rid of some extra stuff we don't need anymore. And maybe there's a lesson, too. Drop some things weighing you down; suddenly life gets cooler looking and lighter feeling.

Next stop this weekend, hoping to get back to the rear section. With the seat on it's way and the subframe on it's way, those two things are opening back up a big can of worms and things to figure out. And probably should stop getting distracted by other parts and keep with the plan.

And I love it when a plan comes together.

[ respect, Mr. Hannibal Smith ]
