Re: 50' HiaWhatTheAfter diving into this bike I dont feel bad about Ratting it.everything is kinda shot and was stuck.
Cut off crank arm,air hammer/chisel for the crank nut,pounded out gooseneck.But anyhoo she's down to frame and fork.Also had to spot weld the kickstand nut underneath to keep it from spinning. ![]() ![]() ![]()
Re: 50' HiaWhatTheHi! I see you have all the makings of a great build! Starting with a Cleveland Welding Tanker w/ Springer - doesn't get any better as far as I'm concerned. Did that come with a CWC Chain Guard? If not I'll look in my storage space and see if I have one. Have Fun! Robert
Re: 50' HiaWhatThe
Nope never got the guard with the bike,darnit
Re: 50' HiaWhatTheI bought a few of the 50s style guards with the name embossed - Western Flyer, Hawthorne and I'm thinking I might have picked up a Hiawatha also - I'll let you know if I find one. Robert
Re: 50' HiaWhatTheLookin great so far buddy! Can't wait to see what you do with it. BTW my wife has a road master with the shockmaster fork on it & that baby rides like a cadillac! (yes I do ride it) One of the best riding bikes we have!
My Favorite Color is Rust!
Re: 50' HiaWhatThewew! Luckily the springer came apart like it was built yesterday!

Re: 50' HiaWhatTheWhat is yer plan for the tank? I HATE rust, that's why I live in New Mexico.
Re: 50' HiaWhatThe
Not sure yet,I create them as I go usually.Thinking bare metal with some paint here and there on the bike for accent.Gotta test the frame after its stripped and go from their lol.
