gas spark explosion! working with my hands mentally relaxes me I have played with bikes (pedal and motor) and messed with cars. Luckily I have the best wife who understands my "Mechanical Issues". Now I am restoring a Burley Samba for us to ride as I go thru it

Well the last body part will be here the first week of Aug (the drivers side door)
I went paint shopping with a few colors in mind
Black Tulip (very dark purple) -BLVC23
Damask red - BLVC99
Aconite (purple) - BLVC95
Mirage (mauve) - BLVC11
Local paint house could not mix me cans of Aconite or Mirage, so I test sprayed the Black Tulip and Damask red on my "parts door"
I know poor photos but the black tulip looks to be the winner

the master doing his magic

paint
well I picked up a can (spray) of black tulip and damask red
looks like tulip might be the winner
I have one new door to start working on, seam seal prime and paint
on the work note I am busier than a one legged sailor at an ass kicking contest
need to work on the front end while waiting for the other door to show from the UK
