After Double Nickle and Dr. T's recreation of the Rust Rocket Deluxe last year the bar was set.
Garagegoon got the ball rolling planning, getting parts lined up, and really stepped up to build a bike to equal last year's auction bike.
Garagegoon had some family issues arise and he handed the reigns over to me. Here is what I brought home to begin with.
Pick currently has the first batch for powder coating, super gloss black and ivory.
mikesbikes36 is currently working on recreating the truss rod fork set up from the picture. Once he is done and gets them shipped to pick he will get them coated as well.
Big thanks need to be given here-
garagegoon- for starting the build process, donating many of the parts including the frame
pick-handling the powder coating and donating some parts as well
65rat- for throwing a Bendix red band kickback in the mix
kingzeeba1- donating an awesome Brooks saddle and the goggles
mikesbikes36- building the forks
double nickle- for the awesome RRB plate on the front of the bike
axsepul- donated the vinyl on dubby nic's plate and a sweet license plate
XC204- Donated the forks and also extended the steer tube so they would fit out frame.
peatbog-sent the we needed
450redrider- gets credit for the stem and pedal hardware
LowpowerD- has a friend to cut our spokes for us.
deorman- is supplying the tubes
ratfink1962- Took care of the bearings

If I missed someone please PM me so I can get you on the list. We already have over 25 pages on the build thread and I know someone got left out.
Finally we need to thank Rat Rod for giving us this site where we can come together and share our passion.
