the510keeper Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Victory and I picked up this green bean almost 2 years ago. Did some work to it then sold it to our buddy Tiki. Tiki did a bunch of work to it also, sold it to Chris. (I think 510s have a tendency of being tossed around like this). Ended up back at the shop last Sept. And now the new owner Chris has finally decide what color to paint it. In the beginning Victory and I making it presentable Quote Link to comment

the510keeper Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Update Painted the inside of the hood and truck lid. The frame was separated from the skin where the latch mounts. We used PL400, and clamped it. Once sanded and prepped we then seam seal the entire frame to the skin. Then epoxy sealed, based and cleared. Shaved the hood prop Quote Link to comment
