    @Mark Jenny, don'tcha just love technology...I mean I can't for the life of me think why a modern phone camera would take such small ass pics in default these days...

    I see you bumped them to Full Size, that's better...

    The Silver lining is once you get the size right you can edit your post...

    Good luck with your Smart Phone...:eek:

    Plug and Play...yeah right

  16. I can't believe I missed this thread......that Tudor is a time capsule. The only thing I can add is I would cut down on the amount of rubber fuel hose and bend up some lines (limit the rubber to a few inches at the ends).

    @Mark Jenny I have followed this thread but my 59 year old brain may have missed mention but are you going to address the more distressed areas such as the bottom cowl and fwd fender...

    As a future winter project perhaps...just curious...

    I totally understand the desire to get on the road and also understand the sensitivity of digging into capsules...

    Do you know what material was used on the top? Upholstery vinyl, or is it a rubber type closer to stock style?

    It's a vinyl..kind of a bone color, not quite as white as the pic shows...we were trying to match the old white fender beading
