Getting Started











We got "The Beast" home sunday 1/24/10 in the evening so I didn't have much time to do anything but I planned to get started first thing in the morning.








Monday 1/25/10




I started by taking a bunch of photos for some "Before & After" pictures, then I grabbed an old wood chisel so that I could pop off the chipping paint. Some of the fairing compound was coming off with the paint and I couldn't stop myself. Every job has it's perfect tool and I am here to tell you that a chisel was not "it", however I am known for my persistence in the face of adversity (or idiacy). Four hours later I couldn't lift my arms over my head so I took a break. A pet emergency took up the rest of my day.
