With the winter season, coming we made sure to put the cold weather blinker fluid in the 1949 Cadillac project today......j/k. Fueled the car up today and took it out for the second test ride to finish dialing in the front to rear brake bias with the new front disc brakes and adjustable proportioning valve for the rear. 1 or 2 small things left to button up and back to the owner next week hopefully.

Last week we finished a full wiring job using some trick black and white cloth wiring from TC Bros. and a regulator/rectifier from Rick's Electronics on this groovy old school Honda 500 trike with Harley servi-car rear end. We also did some tuning to the carbs and were able to ride this thing under its own power for the first time in over 2 decades. Now its back to the owner for a few changes to the controls and it'll be out hitting the streets.

Just a few of our full custom builds....not everything we do is a stock restoration. But we certainly do those too!

While it may seem like a trivial matter, we installed some color matched lapbelts from today in the 1949 Cadillac project in the shop. The much needed additional crash safety these offer are a necessity especially when bombing around town with family and friends in this tank! RetroBelt also supplied all of the mounting hardware necessary to facilitate install. Next up will be the front disc brake conversion...stay tuned.

Out with the old and in with the new for a lot of parts on the 1986 IROC-Z here in the shop. New heavy duty UMI torque arm and mount as well as rear sway bar and their heavy duty front sway bar and wonder bar to beef up the handling. Also several hours into all new t-top weatherstripping to replace the 40 year old tired originals.

This stylish 1949 Cadillac rolled into the shop a few weeks ago with a checklist of small repairs and upgrades including a few chrome repairs. Since then that has blossomed into redoing all of the brightwork on the exterior of the car which will add an entirely fresh look to this driver. Other repairs and upgrades going on here include some window repairs and new glass, a front disc brake conversion, a dual master cylinder and possibly power brakes, seat belts, and some other odds and ends.

Wet sanded all of the panels for the XS650 chopper down to 3,000 grit this week then a 2 stage polish with CSI Ceram-X. These came out like glass and the Tropical Glitz Tropical Teal Candy over silver flake absolutely pops in the sun!

Here's a little sneak peek of the paint for the XS650 chopper build fresh off the gun! Rear fender and frame still need to be shot and everything will get a good cut and buff before assembly in a few months.
