Thanks for the compliments everyone! And YES i am going to take care of the roller pedal, it looks a lot worse in the pics but it will get the full treatment as well!!! I should have the pan wrapped up this week and set to the side , so stay tuned Zimblewinder we will get that roller pedal in fully restored condition soon!!! _________________ Joe

Sounds great Vintagevolks!!
Heres a pic of Jodys rims and tires all mounted nd balanced. I dropped off the body today at the blasters for the total strip down procedure!!! she'll be 100% bare in a day or two!!!!! And heres a couple pics of my blasters booth for you to see Jody!
heres a pic to compare the color of Jodys reed green next to a mango green rim i just did for another customer! The reed green is super beautiful and a true vintage color!!
