UPDATES!! Finally!
Funny story, I was stripping down the frame and prepping it for paint, when someone pulls up in my driveway. I have no clue who this person is, but I recognize the car from the neighborhood. Turns out the guy just moved here and him and his wife see me working on the bike sometimes, he just finally stopped by to say hi. Long story short, he offered me the use of his "paint booth" and he lives literally right around the corner.
So I continued stripping and grinding, when I noticed something....my bike is trying to talk to me. I dont know if this was something done at the factory or a previous owner. The F looks stamped, but the U looks carved. Either way, made me smile.
Once the frame was prepped, I took it over to the "paint booth". Pretty decent place for painting, a 10'x20' shed with ventilation. So we strung her up and began shooting it with the bedliner.
After the frame, I shot the wheels. Ended up using a glossy black plastidip like spray made by Rustoleum. I figured I'd give it a shot and see how it turned out. I may go powder coating in the future, perhaps at the next tire change.
After 2 days of baking in the shed, I must say I could not be happier with the result.
From here, I just need to paint the engine, get it reinstalled, and then just reassemble everything.
Only things left for fabricating are the fenders, the crossbow shelf (which I cant finish without the crossbow), the exhaust end caps, and the little decorative piece next to the kickstarter. Then I just have to wire her up, top off the fluids, and enjoy!
