Sweet man. I'm building a 26" bmx cruiser out of an 86 mongoose atb. Looking forward to seeing your progress. Oh and I'm a fellow aircooler :wink:

Really fun first ride! I know irideiam will have some pics up soon so stay tuned. Was a nice low key cruise around Galveston island Texas. I have a felling we are going to catch on around here....
Really cool bicycles. Ive been working on a 1953 24” of the same bike. Are yours 26”? If youd like to part with your new cl find let me know im interested.
Heres an as found, ill put up some cleaned up pics later today....
Well, you know I've been talking about this so im definitely interested. Im affiliated with a few local vw clubs as well so a car show tie in is an easy task which is a good way to get the word out to like minded folks as well as get some bikes seen. I think a local get together to discuss...
