I wanted to get involved in last years MBBO build off but just didn't have enough knowledge built up yet, so after a year of a lot of questions, bike swap meets, and trial n error I'm ready to jump in with both feet. I love Huffy's since that's what I had as a kid and started building a replica of my Firestone Rail I had when I ran across this 10 footer (what we call cars/bikes that look good from 10 feet away until you get up close) that had original blue paint but was chipped and nicked to death when I got it, not to mention that great looking car steering wheel on it!
So I have been gathering parts all spring and summer to resurrect this Huffy to look like the bike that was next to mine when I picked out my bike at our local Firestone store, I chose this bike first but the salesman told my Dad they were too dangerous so I got my second pick instead. Even though I loved my Rail I always wanted the other.
Thanks to all you guys that have been patient with me and my questions for the past year.
So this is my starting point picture.
