Worked on pedals again today, made some bushings to get rid of the plastic things.

My forward progress may be impeded by the fact that I spend 3 hours a day trying to get into the gators.

Great idea!
Knowing him though, he'll grind it smooth, bondo it, block-sand it, paint it, clear it, AND buff it!!!
