Hooray!  BBB day arrived last week, super fast from Mark in Canada but I had to go out of town for work right afterward and really didn't get a chance to look at it until this weekend.  I went with the untrimmed kit.  I've been reading lots of other AP builds here, but feel I still have a lot to learn.  Really appreciate all the great builds people have posted.  Look forward to standing on the shoulders of giants as I dive into this.

For any fellow Russian Ural sidecar drivers, the BBB fits nicely into the hack!:

Lots to do!

Daunting, but also exciting!

I have lots of the tools I need already--plus a few more on the way.  Does anyone have versatile rivet guns they really like that they care to recommend?  I had a cheap one, but lost it in a move.  Would like to get a good one I can get a lot of mileage out of. 
 

Still need to get some boots.  I see TKBoots.com are no longer around, and ImperialBoots.com bills their boots as "narrow".  I have super wide paddle feet, usually wear a EE width boot.  Anyone with wide feet have experience finding comfy boots?

Congrats on BBB day!  AP armour is great stuff.

I hardly used speed rivets.  I mostly stuck to snaps, split rivets, and a few single cap rivets.

Good luck on your build!

Nothing better than BBB's, research is the key so don't panic, lots of great references can be found in the gallery section. Good luck with the build
