If it is Green you know it is mean. Here is the one i built a few years ago. These are the original colors. When I first started everyone said don't paint it green. When I was finished they were going to build one in this color. I love it.

So I went to treat my K-member bolts in OSPHO, I poured some into a small container, put the bolts in and let them sit for a week. The grease and oils came off and floated to the top and they turned black, but after a week, the acid turned to a green jelly like substance. I tried to wash it off with water and it got most of it but not all of it. I placed some more fresh ospho in it and I am getting ready to pull out the parts now...I will keep you posted. Tim

Well I found a killer deal on some 304 stainless 1/2" tubing for the fuel lines, made by parker. 7.00 for a 20' stick. I think I may have to buy all they have just incase I need to remake them. I suck at bending tubing! Tim Once I have fuel lines installed, I will get a US radiators 4 core triple pass radiator and then do another break in run...Tim
