Mate,
One great looking project,
I am currently doing a 62 Trumpy chop but the workmanship on yours is unreal.
Love the paint job, its similar to my original intention with the chop but now I am going flat black with pinstriping (I Think).
I have just started on the bonnie and will be cutting the guard down this week. The bar end mirrors are on a ship from US of A and I have been painting the cowl, guard, stone style fairing this week. Should be able to apply the stripes next week.
Must feel good to be nearing the finish.

Budweiser beer in the land down under? Who'da thought!
That is a wild looking frame, where the top meets the gooseneck, all those tubular things. Kinda like Medusa's head.
