It was. My hands are very sore from sanding. But it looks good. Not perfect but it looks good. It will be a woods rig. It won't take long before those little imperfections will be lost in the fray.
So I started on the top frame. Jiminy freaking Christmas there are some holes in it. From a hard top I am sure. Maybe three different hard tops. I have roughly 28 rivet holes per side. Nuts ... I am welding them up and cleaning them up for paint. I bet it whistled in the wind on the freeway.
One side all fixed. I am going to pull all the snaps off for paint. The screws are stuck. I sheared the tip of an impact driver. Crazy the cheap crap from china we have now. I have all new black snaps to put back. And I have two new black tops to pick from. It is going to be sharp as heck. I will probably attempt to make a complete top frame set some day. It does not look to difficult. Anyway..
More later.
