My NEW Viking (new to me)

Painthappy · 10-31-2006, 03:09 PM

Well, I just got it off of ebay. Now it's time to transform her!

How it looks now:

It looks that way as it is currently stripped of it's old anno. Ready for a new coat of whatever I wish!! Sweet.

And unmilled. Ready to look purty...

Hey, that things blind as a bat! You should definitely get some eyes in there, unless you're going to be able to feed it nice and fast, then it likely might not matter...

Looks great though, we're looking forward to what you're going to do. Any ideas of where you're going to get it milled? Let Destructive Customs do the work?

No sidewinder?

Painthappy · 10-31-2006, 07:29 PM

I know.. go figure. I'll be picking one up shortly for her.

carter, the seller is the next town over. i was thinking about grabbing that and driving over to his house...
good price, too...

Yeah.. I didn't complain about it. I mean, it needs work. Annoing, and some milling, and then a new Regulator.

So I need to drop some coin into it. But this way at least I can make it mine and custom

It may need some work, but it looks to be in excellent shape, and it's clean. Looks like you have a great project there. What kind of electronics are inside?

Painthappy · 11-01-2006, 10:54 AM

No idea. WAS board? I know very.. ahem.. extremely little about boards and their capabilities.

To be honest. As long as it shoots semi, I'll be happy with it.

That, and the auction didn't say. Says it has eyes, but missing a cover. I'll learn more about her when I get it.

Painthappy · 11-01-2006, 10:52 PM

Ok.. just picked up a Sidewinder Regulator today.

So it can all get anno'd at the same time.

Oh, I'm getting SO ready.
