Sled is not completely done yet. Deer season opens Monday, starting to combine beans, getting ready to drill wheat so it might be up to a month or so before sled is done. I am posting pictures of the work in progress. At the last minute I decided to paint the skis and windscreen. I really like how it looks so far - what do you think? I really don't know how long it will be before I get my stickers put on

Question?
How much work was it to remove all the body panels and did you have to disassemble the fron end to get anything off?

SWEET!
Fort Mac,
Nothing really has to be disassembled to take the panels off. A couple of the panels are pop-riveted. It's not a lot of work.....just time consuming. Depending on what you are wanting to do, if you can tell by the pictures, everything that is white was NOT sanded - only the blue was sanded. I was looking for a contrast between the two. That's why I left the white pieces unsanded (plus my arms couldn't take it any more)
Go ahead and dive into it! It's really not that bad. If you have any other questions, please let me know and I will help all I can. One thing I can tell you - plastic always has static in it and it will attract any and all dust around you. I found that out the hard way. If you are painting/where you are painting - make sure the area you are working in has been sprayed down and wet before you start.

Awesome job!! Sled looks great! Must feel good to finish a project like that.
finished for this year. going to take out the skid after this season to replace bushings. going to bead blast and powder coat. ton of hours in this project, but well worth it.
