If I get out of the garage alive.....between the paint in the air, and the Cohiba I am smoking and the beer I am ingesting, I don't know what's going to come out blacker, my engine, my face, or my lungs....LOL

I do have a mask on......hehehehe

Pics will be latter, I forgot the camera inside the house....

At least I put the dog in the house.....I remembered that much....

Boy am I getting light headed....hehhehehe

[spyug]

Well I want to see the pic of you smoking a Cohiba with a mask on and don't be painting with a stogie going or you will burn down the house and there will be no bike show on the weekend for us

[rustybronco]

I want a picture of the beer!

[GateKeeper]

I have taken pictures....you will have to wait until I get back in the house....

If I don't pass out....LOL

Mmmmmm Cohiba.............one of those has my name on it and it is warm enough in the man cave. I do think I'll go "study" my "apehangers" in a blue haze. Thanks for the idea..........and the Cohiba

I want a pic of the dog with a black body and gold top.

Well it's all done, I have finished painting, and it's sitting in the garage with the heater on to keep her warm for the night, and hopefully she will cure and dry nicely, and all will be well, for it's insertion back in the bike...

OK enough yapping, and onto the pics....

Where on earth did you find "Karlovacko" beer?? That's from my neck of woods, Croatia (Eastern Europe) it's very popular locally but I had no idea it's been exported that far away

Oh, and the engine looks good

Well, I am from Croatia, born in Zagreb, and moved to Canada.....small world ehhh,,,

And I find it in my local LCBO store, it's where we get our wines, spirits, imported beer, etc.....the local beer stores don't carry many imports....

and thanks for the compliment on the engine....



Ohhh and the Cohiba is right from Cuba.....my buddy is retired In Charge (flight attendant) and still goes there often.....always grabs me a box.....if I ask nicely...

Finally. So by the weekend you will be putting it back in the frame. Maybe I should come up early Saturday and watch you do that

Nice selfie too.

Psyguy, He'll probably PM you all the details but Damir is one of your tribe too and his mum in law makes damn fine Slivo, which I'm glad to say, he will share with select friends. Maybe I better offer to help put the engine in after all

[GateKeeper]

Maybe yes maybe no....I still have to paint the part that I cannot get to, but I don't want to touch it for a few days at least, have to let it cure as much as possible, and now with the cold weather again, it's just gonna sit,,,,,for now....

your more than welcome to come early anyways, we can stand around shoot the sheit and stare at the engine...and have a few shots of Slivo....LOL

if nothing else we can get the bike out of the basement....

Looks like there are 3 LCBO stores in and around Sarnia, and as I will be there AGAIN this coming Saturday (picking up another race car), and they offer a pilsner, I'll have pick up some and give it a try.

might not be carried in all LCBO's, I have seen this first hand, you will find one thing in one, but not another.....but there are many import beers that are good, Stella, 1664, Heinekin, ohhhh and so many more...

Good thing I painted my engine last night....tonight I will be out with the snow blower....LOL

and to think it was Plus 5 yesterday, and today we might see up to 20cm of snow.....








Hey Spyug, I hope you got that snow blower of yours working, I think your going to need it as well tonight....
