Thumbs up Kinda old to be new

Hey everyone! Well I'm from Ga. by way of everywhere in Southeast. I've done body/paint, airbrushed tshirts to airplanes and my career was as an electronics tech/radar specialist in the Marine Corp and FAA for 30 yrs. I love motorcycles and old cars. My first bike was an alstate 150 from sears, came to the house in the crate. I was 12 and I put it together and away I went. My current project is a 1974 honda 250 and I'm building a street tracker. Hense my need for metal shaping. I hate fiberglass and nothing smells better than bondo but I want an alluminum rear fender so on with the learning process and I think with all the talent here it should be a blast. I have watched Peters you tube video so many times I already feel we are old friends and Kerry I can't wait to meet you, someday.

Welcome Mike, My friend Mudslide Sam used to race an XL250 short tracker, total loss ignition. It would rev like a 2 stroke. Lots of fun beautiful little bike.
