    Hemi,
    Nice. Does your wife know that one of her makeup bruses is missing?

    Funny you should ask...
    The cat stole it from her as a toy months ago, and I stole it back, washed it off, and added it to my tool kit. It works well for making large surface areas grimy and sooty. I would highly recommend the technique for any Espee engine....

    Thanks!
    It turned out to be muh easier than I had thought to do the job. The first TM I disassembled, but the other 2 I did not. They look equally good, so disasembly to weather in this fashion is not required. The SD50 was fully disassembled, and I lost the horn in process.... Surprised no one has mentioned that yet...

    A strip of gray paper, with the seam on the underside. Just think of loading your pickup with something like these. How would you tie down a second level?

    Good point, Pete. Maybe a few strips, a strip or 2 lengthwise, and a few widthwise to keep the load from shifting up.
