Default So much for the Restore

As a few of you may know, I am restoring my honda CM. Well, bought a tank off of Ebay for 10.00. sanded it down all ready for paint. Filled it with water today and everything seems on the up and up. Had it on the bench nexdt to me, went to get up to empty it and .............Ya know how we all thought that the worst sound in the world was a helmut hitting the ground???? ........... Got one better.......... A FULL TANK!!!!!!!!!!!! I heard it and held my breath, turn it over and this is what I saw.........

It never fails..just when it's all going good, WHAM!! Something or somebody has to come along!! Easy enough fix tho'...

I quit smoking 3 times so far, once for over a year, and started right back at it.....Oh well. I like it too much maybe??!! lol
