| It looks like you've got a long road ahead of you, But I look forward to seeing the finished product. Are you going to update the engine to something like a EL or AU?

this is what im useing damo |
I use the same stuff when i'm restoring BMX frames.....I usually cover the frame with the paint stripper then cover it in those plastic drop sheets, That way it keeps the moisture in and stops the paint stripper from going hard (You don't need to do much scraping this way).

| Should put on some EB-ED guards with the indicators in them. Also replace the C-pillars with EB-ED items and put on a EB bonnet too.
