I have been working on getting the chassis all strait and smooth for
paint. I have been using filler on top of the Epoxy to level out all the
pits in the top of the frame and a few dings. I know this is a little
more work but I think it will pay off in the long run in looks and
keeping it from gathering water on the top of the frame. My kids came
out to help me sand on the frame too. Soon I will take the front wheels
and hubs down to Hoods Machine to have them turned for new bearings. I
don't want to do this but the original bearing size is hard to find or
gone. So the easiest way to solve the problem is widen the hub by .075
to fit a slightly bigger race. With that done the bearings will be on
the shelf at most parts stores.
