Well, six months later, and I finally got the frame primered. I bought a Harbor Freight 40# pressure media blaster to strip the paint and rust. Works like a charm, but goes through the media faster than I expected. I used 70 grit aluminum oxide and it does a great job removing paint and rust. Expensive, though. You will also see the repaired frame and the modified engine mount. I'm told my welds won't hold water, but they'll do for my Cub.

Just a couple pics. Still have a long way to go. Only lack a good fender pan and a seat to have all the parts together though. Hoping to get everything painted before it gets too cold again. Maybe I'll get it all put together this winter.
