I went over to my aunt and uncles' house (where I'm keeping the bike until I can get it running, registered and on the road) to find that my brother re-covered the seat! The 2" foam I bought was a little thick but I think the extra cushion will be nice. Note the dent in the front fender. I think I'll be able to pound it out.
My tank has been sitting in a molasses bath for a few weeks and this is what the water looks like right now. I'm not even going to try to describe the smell. I have a Kream kit to line the inside of the tank (and probably remove more rust) which I'll probably use this weekend.
Things are progressing nicely. I'm in the process of getting a bonded title and by the time it comes through, I'm hoping to have the bike ready to ride.
