This started out as I'd guess an 80's era Murry girls bike. I bought it at the local thrift store for $35.00. I might add a small cut down chrome front fender, but I'm not sure. Maybe some apes too, but proably not, for now it's done. Dean
This is what I started with,

The end,

I added a bell, and this guy to the handel bars.

I added the rear reflector, and license plate.

Notice how much lower the front of the bike is compared to the first picture.

Re: The sex change change bike is finished.

Nice! I like the finished bike a lot.

Is that a Model T in the background?

NICE!
 
Re: The sex change change bike is finished.

If that is automotive paint, would it happen to be 1974 Opel GT Signal Green? My 56 F-100 is and it looks like your wheels. Nice bike, simple but the color kinda grabs you. I like it.
 
Re: The sex change change bike is finished.

looks great! glad to see some new colors being used:mrgreen:
and yeah......post a picture of that t carcass(at least thats what the fenders looked like)!
 
Re: The sex change change bike is finished.

Got one of those girls setting in the back yard waiting for spring, when she will go under the knife. Hope she turns out as well as your's. Love the green.

It's 1969 AMC Big bad green. It was a can of old lacquer I've had for over 30 years.
