Rather than focus on the RE assembly, I focused on the task at hand, getting that metal polished up! The Mothers Power ball wouldn't touch the crap build up on the aluminu. I ended up taking the sand with 400 grit to the entire thing first! Then the mothers power ball, then by hand! maybe 2 hours total on this one?? |
| ZORK2:
Well I DID get it back together! And I PROOVED with out a shadow of a doubt..... GIVEN ENOUGH TIME YOU REALLY CAN POLISH A TURD!!!!!!!!! LOL! :laugh2: |
| ZORK2:
Well my only problem is now, I think this one turned out TOO good!! Heck, its nicer than the wheel on my CAR! :) Does anyone know what it looked like from the factory? I'm sure it wasn't polished. Probably just a brushed metal look I'm guessing? If I could only go back to 1988 when I was 13........... Any thoughts on weather or not this looks good, or I should give it a more rustic look? |
| Paul Olson:
I think it looks great, but I don't remember what they looked like new. Great job so far! I will be watching this thread really closely now - I am getting one of these tomorrow. ;D It is working, but could definitely use a little cosmetic work. What paint did you use on the pedals? Those turned out nice. |

Looks great! I'd leave it. |
