    Was just out your way, Albert, yesterday. Ran up to Polock's place, in fact, to pick up a SECA rim from him. Thanks again, Polock!

    It was nice meeting you Jim (roadrash) I hope you can fix the tank. If not, no hard feeling if you toss it.

    Just stumbled across your post, Eddie, after breaking for the night on the tank. I think I have this sucker licked. did a bit of finessing with a body hammer and plastic dent punch and got a good bit of the metal evened out. with all the work I did from within the filler tank, on the inside, I think I better take it somewhere to remove the liner and re-line it. I have to imagine it's gotta be chewed up on the other side of that dent. Hardest part is trying to undo the creases right at the leading edge of the knee indents. One things for sure, she's definitely gonna need a re-fin! hehe.

    Good to see some locals! I'm in Greensburg. Does anyone have some skill with cleaning/polishing they'd be willing to swap for some six-packs? I have big ideas for getting my 550 Maxim cleaned up, but aside from buying degreaser, I'm short on ideas/tools/workspace. Feel free to PM me.
