    Love it. Maybe I can bring mine up and spray some Featherfill in the primer booth.

    I debated on that color of blue. It looks really nice. I think picking the color has been the most difficult part of the build.

    Yep. I'll be there Saturday spraying Featherfill on mine. Plus my input on stripe dimensions and layout. What are your plans?
