Having finished, or at least taken as far as I want to go, I did some pretty pics of my 3TJ

After getting hit off it in a road rage thing I had to strip the engine down to get the crank cases welded. I replaced the left fairing and patched the rest of the bodywork up. Replaced the generator + cover, left bar, put on the frame protectors to cover the dent, and hammered hit bent and swore at the subframe to get it a bit straighter.

Looks like a nearly new Bike again ;) Well done Restoration :thumbsup: , even if it lacks the last little spotrepair at the tails left side.... is the red painted or a Decal? If painted it should be possible to find the according colorcode somewhere for doing the last missing spotrepair...also for dents on the frame a combination of a bit hydro-metal (a polymere including an amount of aluminium) and the fitting paint would be a chance to do it if the protectors one day should be taken away...

Yes it's paint but a metallic and it's onto the decal .... you know it's just a bit too much to mess with and much easier to put a tail panel on when it comes up on the bay - trouble is a decent one hasn't come up yet
