You are brave man balancing the fender on a 2x4.
Were you able to find another tank and keep the anniversary tank?[/QUOTE

hahaha brave? It was magic!

Nope, I just used the stock tank. You are definitely right though, I could have made a few bucks but I just didn't have the time to funk around putting it on ebay and getting a new tank.

 

I'm liking how this could end up. Nice change to the SoCal look. Can't wait to see the result.

 

I like your idea on the fender. I too found a fender wide enough. I frenched in the Deuce taillight, then the license plate box (too small for my plate, had to trim it) and removed the swirl at the end of the plate. I also needed to drill holes for the struts and I don't use the inner fender brackets.

PS, why does this pic appear as a thumbnail?
