Yea it has to be stripped to the bare bones. I have the option of getting it powder coated at work. We have powder coat facility's but the color choices aren't so great.,white, black, red, and Chevy orange. None of which turn me on. There are other colors out there but we wouldn't be able to sneak the frame through the production line. we also have a epoxy spray booth in which there are a gazillion colors to choose from so I'm going that route. I got a bright brilliant yellow in mind. Something that will stand out from the rest. Our painter told me he could mix powdered glass in the paint. It's the stuff used to make street signs reflect . That oughta make the paint pop out!
I can only imagine what that would look like on a night ride! probably blind anyone behind me!
The buggy is together enough to visualize what it's going to be. and it's driving me crazy. It's one hell of an exercise in patience to avoid rushing through taking shortcuts and compromises.
