Blinkers And A Name...




Greetings all, just wanted to post some recent pics of my latest progress on who I have now named, "Elroy." It's just easier to name the guy, I figured. Especially when things aren't exactly going my way in the workshop. At least now I can hurl my frustrated obscenities at a name.


As for the blinkers, they are as I mentioned previously. I purchased a nice Italian leather chamois at my local auto parts shop.


As for installing the blinkers, this was a much easier task than installing hard shell blinker/winkers; this usually involves extreme precision, which can be daunting at times and a little frustrating, too.


As for the leather blinkers, I also love the old-school Marshall look of leather. So I think I will stick with them. Plus, I think Elroy will really enjoy batting his lids at me, too. As for instruction, Al Stevens info + Joel Leder's books were all I needed.


And now, those damn ears...
