Yesterday, I got the kick panels sanded primed and painted. Took the air cleaner and put a new coat of crinkle on it.
I don't know what the PO did, but the pie pan is permanently fastened to the air cleaner. I looked for a weld, glue, don't see anything.
I'm not sure what they did??
I had an old pie pan. I taped it up, and laid it over the good one and painted away, no problems.
Pretty happy with my self with that.
