I appreciate what you're saying mate but I have become a bit OCD about all of this and have already sorted another front! I don't like the thought of there being any weak parts.

Re: Project Blue Belle
Just a minor thing yesterday and today. Started the radiators clean up.
They were pretty Dam bad. Have gone for black to go with the frame etc
One down one to go. Second one is worse!
Ignore the state of the kitchen

Re: Project Blue Belle
Taken some time but I finally got bits back from being powder coated today.
I'm happy with how the items turned out.
And lastly the swingarm.
Moving on nicely.

Good stuff matey! Reminding me of my build, I loved this stage the most, when everything is ready for assembly and looking good.
Take your time and enjoy the process
