Very cool! I really dig the head badge. I play on a hockey team in Kansas City called the Red Rockets. If you want a t-shirt to wear while riding your bike, you can get one at the link beloow. They're cheap:

Nice bike Tim! Glad you where able to get pics of it up. I wish one of my CCM's had a truss fork. That head badge is pretty sweet.
Thanks folks for the nice comments.
Some things are going to be added. back a few years ago I went Flea Market Record shopping. I found a few DEVO records and James Brown and a Minutemen in mint condition. But I also picked up, I remember at the time I dunno why I did. A bike wrench, not any bike wrench but one stamped with CCM. This wrench fits every nut on my bike so I am thinking of ways of incorporating it into the bike and have it functional as well.
I have enough spent rounds in the link to do 10 more shells 5 bikes. I cut of them down slightly The ballistic flang or neck which holds the actual shot or bullet is too small and is removed, I was thinking of using a tap die but it's a little too big and insert a wheel cap inside. That one you see was my first attempt and I cut off wayyyy too much. It's and MG 42 round I think which is 7.9? I also polish them and clear coat them.
I am adding headlight and taillight as well and am looking for my first true RAT ROD FRAME...I have been infected.
