Arc Charity sled build "Make the Kitty Pretty"

[YFZ_Butch]

Nice work on the pan Skerz, it almost looks like its got more shine than the tunnel that I thought I did such a good job on.  The kitty is looking real sexy.  When will the big mean 8 horse be rebuilt and ready to stick in?

The shine is all in how many grinders you burn up. If you want we can touch up the tunnel a little if you want, it is pretty good though. The Herbenator has the parts and will get it here soon. We have to find EXT Puma and get the seat. Brian is going to get the hood and the tank done soon (he has to repair my Chev so maybe then). We will have to get the Dennis Kirk order placed for the misc stuff soon. The clutches are done and ready to go on too. The main hold up right now is the re-chromed rear bumber and bars. Other than that should be rolling soon.

was wondering what was up with it-you've not seen it yet!

[Skerz]

No seat yet. We could get it fitted up, we have the cat head snaps and everything. Can't wait to see it.

Update: the motor is running and needs paint, the bars and bumper are chromed and in transit, the seat is done and we are waiting for transit, the clutches are done, the hood and gas tank are being worked on this week as well. Riding soon.

The hood, motor, and tank are the last items that need work and Brian is working on them this week making them pretty with paint. The rechromed bars and rear bumper are done (Thanks to Bill Adams buddy who will be mentioned later). Seat is waiting for delivery, talked to Terry today on that. Sticker Guy sent us the graphics, WOW NICE, Thanks. We will be putting it together after Christmas. Also, thanks Jack P. for the fuel pump, he bailed us out on the motor.

Also talked with John with Waconia show. We are in there. Thanks. More details to come there as well.

We need three things:
a side grab handle
a windshield 
a dash (the one we have has an extra switch hole drilled in the top of it

The sled is welcome for the weekend of Feb 27th (Addicted2oldsleds Vintage Weekend) if anyone wishes to get it here. We have been asked if any sleds are being raffled off this year?

Either way, I am in for 10 tickets. Someone send me 10 unless the sled is going to be at the Rola 100? I can fill them out and pay then.
