Ok, I'll do another. Anything goes, so here goes. Building a new school BMX. I don't think this is much of a contender for the build off, considering some of the motorized stuff I've seen posted, but follow along if you want.
This bike will be the recipient of the nickel plated cranks and forks, so it all ties together.

As purchased, pile-o-bike, beat to crap, brush painted, probably shoulda walked.
UNITED KL40 expert, I think, emailed the serial number to United. The only United parts are the frame and fork, so Im trying to figure out if this was built up from just a frame. Full chromoly frame and fork, short chainstays, long top tube. I was interested to ride one of these with this geometry.
Started stripping the paint tonight.
Had a really cool transparent red color under the gooey black
Heres what I think the bike liked like originally
