Love a nice tank

I'm going with the faded plastic tank on my '82 and I'd like to paint it but I'm not sure what color would be politically correct. I know it's probably the wrong tank.

My husqvarnas that I sold some had perfect looking tanks. I hate to ride them when they look so perfect.

Those tanks look so perfect now I want to fab a husqvarna mailbox?

carve out a heap of the sweedish crown in plywood and glue em together till they are 250mm deep. ideal mail box

Finished and the project is now on hold, leapfrogged by a Buell Metisse. Still, will look nice in glass case!
Mainly thanks to Specialist Dents, dents removed, pressure tested, welds repaired. And Simon at Flying Tiger paintwork, no decals except tiny factory ones on top , beautifully painted.

Yeah, looks nice!

That's awesome, !!

This was the message from Simon for the paint....'As you know we went for the Mercedes silver code in the end. I have sealed the paint edge in around the top of the fuel cap with silver POR15 to stop the fuel lifting the paint. Husqvarna and BelRay logos are painted and the correct logo. The ones on the tank in the pictures were manipulated and not quite correct! I had to draw the belray logo as I couldn't find a vector ready to use on the Internet, they were all the different (normal) style logo.'
I'm not sure how he blended the decals shown here, top job!

Ah, la garde de chevaux

Nice kitty.....

One step closer and your right arm joins my right eye in heaven !

Nice job Joe :-)
