leathernun's Vintage Retek Cheetah build

#1
Well I decided to throw my pile together too since so many others are participating. Only thing I have done so far is alot of parts gathering, and I also had the frame and fenders blasted . The frame has about 4 coats of high gloss black enamel .New fiberglass covers were made for me by Rick ( Chatten63):thumbsup:

Gold is the original color. I have the gas tank at the chrome plater's now. Frame needs one more coat of clear, and I will be ready to start the assembly process. Still have to get ther wheels blasted and some small parts.:thumbsup:
