The PO, in his black-out phase, even painted the push buttons. Fortunately, the paint came off with fingernail scratching (followed by a bit of 3M Adhesive Remover).

For fun, I tried exploring the belt retractor. Oops.

Fortunately, no kinks in the spring. I was able to wind it back.

The side covers also have a red overspray accent. Nice going, PO.

I cleaned the undercoating (again, thanks PO) from the anchor at the end of the belt. One is OK, the other is about half rusted through. I think I will replace these when I get new belts made--probably in body color (tease).

Next up, the brake components. The calipers are nasty dirty, but complete.

I was prepared for some amount of wild spring action, and so managed to keep it on the table, where it made that rat's nest in semi-slow motion.

My daughter and SIL came from Arizona for the weekend, and brought my newly chromed bumpers.
