More Parts from Lonestar_R

[Lonestar_R]

Pappy the last of my stuff is commin at ya. You are about done with the first batch so as soon as you can get that bunch and this bunch done would be great. You should see these parts in a couple days via USPS. Here is the list:

Laeger Swingarm
*Needs all the non Factory welds cleaned up and redone.
*Needs Pivot Bearings Removed.
*Spray her down with Stealth Black


Rear Shock Spring
*Gloss Black


Rear Brake Pedal
*Gloss Black

That is it. Thanks again

[Pappy]

are you choosing stealth due to the welds?

[Lonestar_R]

yeah sorta.....do you not think it will go good with the rest of the color scheme. What color are you thinkin? I actually really thought I wanted Metallic Silver. But am afraid of the welds showing up .

[Pappy]

well, its your call. i can do some good clean up work hopefully and it can be any color you would like. i reckon once i get the welds straightened out i will have a better idea for you. this should be a pretty cool project for your wife, so ill do all i can on the welds

[Lonestar_R]

No actually this is for my stepson. I'm really trying to get him into riding...his life consists of a video game and TV....hopefully he will after this is all said and done. Anyway...clean them up and let me know how they turn out and then I will give the final descion the color. Hows that sound?

[Pappy]

works for me!

[Lonestar_R]

Pappy did you recieve the box o parts I sent? Or should I say did you recieve a tag to go pick them up at the post office?

[Pappy]

yep

ground out what i could of the bad welds, over welded and sanded down. luckily most of this will be under the swing arm and you wont notice it a bit.

[Lonestar_R]

great to hear.....are you ready to coat that swinger now and need a final color choice for it?

[Pappy]

i have to re blast it, but IMO gloss will be fine unless you want something else

[Lonestar_R]

I'm still undecided......I'll let you know before your ready to do it

[Pappy]

hey brock...ill be needing a final color choice by tomorrow evening. i took monday night off, and had dinner company tonight, but tomorrow night i will be back at it and your remaing parts are ready to coat. all i will have left is your bag of moly work, and its prepped and ready so everything will be done and shipped by the end of the week.

[Lonestar_R]

Crap! I cannot decided but I''ll make my mind up right now. Just do it in Gloss Black. Thanks for the Heads up. Hey did the frame ship or not?

[Pappy]

its all packaged up, but i havent printed shipping labels. I should have it out either tomorrow or thursday at the latest.

[Lonestar_R]

OK I just want to be on the look out for it thats all.....the Delivery guys don't always leave them at the front door or even the back door. The other parts found there way in front of the garage door

[Pappy]

lol...atleast they made it to your address. i once had a chassis skid plate delivered a mile up the road. old lady had no idea who sent her what. if it wasnt for me being persistant i honestly dont think she would have let me have it:chinese:

i also try and watch shipping too much at once. i have had words with several delivery drivers that tried to cram my packages into an already overload van or truck. i have no problem not allowing something to ship when i see this.

[Lonestar_R]

Well Thats good to know...these parts already had enough of a ride. Going to North Carolina before they got to you.

[Pappy]

did they ever tell you wth happened with that?

[Lonestar_R]

Nope. I have heard some horror stories about Fed EX. I guess its true. The only reason I ship that big stuff that way is because where I work gets a huge discount from Fed EX. It cost me like 12 bucks to ship that frame to you. I think that 250R frame to you was $16

[Pappy]

lol, ive seen it from all the shippers:p i think next year i will post that i wil not ship anything out during the 2 week period at christmas. that seems to be the worst, especially with big packages.

[Lonestar_R]

Hey pappy I found the serial number tag for that Lonestar Frame last night. I may have to send my steering stem down to you so I will send it down with that.

[Pappy]

no prob

the 300 frame is on its way and the remaining parts will ship monday

[Lonestar_R]

I posted that then edited it cause I saw it just as I hit the reply button......did you get the swinger to your brother? or were you able to get the bearings out?

[Pappy]

[Lonestar_R]

well when I saw it last it looked nothing like that......I guess all of the parts be done.....can't wait to get crackin this weekend....

[Lonestar_R]

Pappy, I got the frame today....it looks great.

Is there just one more box to come. Cause I need all the bolts to start assembly. Hopefully they are in the other box.

i'll have to stop up this weekend and see the frame...maybe even lend a helping hand on the re-assembly...
brock, did you get his plate for that frame to him yet? if not, i can send it with the exhaust and bumper...they are ready to go...i just left the exhaust at my parents house...gotta go get it tonight...will be shipping it in the morning ...so if you want me to send it with my stuff, bring it to work in the morning...i'll get it from you before i close up the box...

[Pappy]

your last box shipped today and it has all the bolts, swing arm, hubs etc

[Lonestar_R]
