The quality is great... not sure which way I'm going with the powder paint and chrome yet. I am having the top leaf chromed and the rockers and front bar chromed. Still not sure if I am going with gloss black or matching it with the tins...

Looks like an Indian headlight. I will say I haven't seen that front end used in 30 or 40 years so it will have a crowd around it at events to say the least!

Keep us updated. <thumbs up>
