mklotz70 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Seeing those pics and the rough area around the seams reminded me.....those seams that are a few inches inside the lower corners of the front window are notorious for leaking!!! Both my wife's 521 and Mend leak/leaked there. Check them closely. I sprayed a bit of soapy water on the outside and blew on the inside with an air gun....bubbles.....no good. Now is the time to fix it. A lot of times, from inside the cab, it looks like it's coming from closer toward the center because of the way the water will cling to the surface and run a few inches before it drips. Anyway.....definitely give it a check now. 4 Quote Link to comment

As for the time frame : we are painting on Saturday , scooter stuff has already got his local supplier to donate the paint for the build .
