    It was fun. I had almost no power steering until we got to that meadow, then it finally burped some air and worked great. Sunday morning I got a scare when the temp gauge was pegged, then realized it doesn't work sometimes.

    I glammed the underside and replaced lost paint. The front spring hanger took a few hits, you can kinda see the "G" and "N" got bashed. I should have got the low pro hanger.

    I didn't get pics of the shifter cover I made. It is just 20 gauge sheet cut and shaped, with rubber door mold around the edge to seal it.

    The Glamourunner has sat for 2.5 weeks, still waiting to get it registered and it is killing me.

    I picked up some 3/4" grade 8 bolts and nylock nuts for the steering ram. I almost lost a nut at Potts Mtn

    The rear tires #rubsocray so I chopped the fenders some more today. I want to chop some more and close the fenderwell back up with sheetmetal, but hopefully this will do for this weekend's ride

    Looking good! I lost a nut on my shock because it wasn't a nylon nut and it was flopping around until someone said uh... Your shock is messed up man! Lol

    Lol. I'm glad I was halfway smart and installed the bolt from the top, so it wouldn't fall out. It would have sucked to lose it.
