    The NEXT Blood Clot pt.2

    I built this bike in 09. There's a thread on here called The NEXT Blood Clot, (don't know how I came up with the names for my old builds). Anyway I pulled it out of the spot it's been sitting in all those years. It's really dirty. Think I'll clean it up today. (ps) thread link to the original...

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    Yes I clearcoated it. I didn't really need to, it had a really nice shine, but, I got a run up where the seat post goes in. I sprayed some more color there to hide the run, so I clearcoated the whole frame to get the shine consistent again. I planned to clearcoat the chainguard anyway. The...

    Decided to go ahead and paint it. I forgot how difficult a bike frame is to paint. Came out pretty nice.

    Primed everything today. The weather has been nice. Supposed to rain Saturday and Sunday, maybe snow Monday. I hate the inconsistencies in the weather. Anyway I finished my V8 S10 motor rebuild. Now on to other projects.

    Should be able to get back to this soon. Lots of other things going on that need my attention.

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    Thank you. Haven't really worked on it. It's amazing how much stuff you have to go through when someone passes. Her car is sold, house is cleaned out, and granddaughter and boyfriend have moved in. I did get my shop cleaned up after some big mechanical jobs made it a mess. I did a test panel...

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    Haven't touched the bike since my last post. Lots of stuff going on here. Mother in law passed away 2 days ago, she was 93 and lived by herself right up until the end. We can't ask for anything more. I also did a complete paint job on a full size Chevy truck, as well as some other things. Time...

    I'd like to do one of those frames and have it anodized. That one would look good purple.

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    My new seat arrived today from Calif. It shipped Nov. 27 and arrived today Dec. 10. Gotta love the post office. I'm just thankful the seat and the sissy bar that the post office also lost arrived with no damage. I need to order a new chrome rear fender, and some old school pedals. I've been...

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    My headbadge is kind of rough. It's held on with the original rivets and I didn't want to remove it. Someone, probably the little angel that owned it bent both sides of the badge away from the frame, so I mixed up some JB weld and put it under the edges of the head badge. I covered the head...

    AMF Shelby Stingray build

    New sissy bar arrived today after the post office lost it. It shipped Nov. 27, just arrived today from Calif. I'm surprised it's not damaged. Waiting on the new seat now. It shipped from Calif on the same day as the sissy bar. The handgrips I ordered shipped the same day as the other parts and...
