Wes, did you have the tank painted or did you get it that way. That's a really nice paint job.

 

[fouraceswes]

the tank came with the project when i got it. It was obviously some stalled project or lost paint-work from years ago. So the tank was already painted, probably 30 years ago. Traded a sweet little BSA i had for a whole garage full of stuff. Rest I sold this project I kept.

Unfortunately the paint is not quite perfect, couple tank slappers took out some bits up front. But it works nice on tis one. . . rattlecan on the frame and fender

Your gonna have fun with that one Wes. Gotta do something for yourself or else you'll loose the time.
