Although there is lots left to do she is starting to clean up nicely. With this week being a bit slow for me I should get to a good amount of things. The rest I will get to over the winter.

For the ride I took I used about 3.5 gallons. Not bad at all really but I didn't push too hard first time out. Got her up on plane a couple times. I want to replace the steering cable first.

Very Very very pleased if I do say so.
Thank you!!
