I hope you put/left some sort of inhibiter on that beauty. That thing is sucking o2 molecules right through the screen.

Very nice clean up!

Just saw your "finds" thread on this one--- you've done an incredible job in bringing out the best in it. Fork looks great. Nicely done....

Looking great so far and no more pre-ride tetanus shots needed.

Come ride it! It's a good rider now! Not janky like it was the last time!

I meant the correct direction. It was bent backwards,

I thought you meant the correct method. So how did you bend it back?

Probably a little overkill!
I bet 11 1/2 tons would've done the job.

I already posted this picture in several other places but I thought I'd share it here too.

Dr.T hooked me up with some Sears Allstate Whitewalls. Looks classy now.
