*** MAXXIMUM FLOW ***

Postby texasbigjon on Sun Jul 31, 2011 4:37 pm

out of the last three buildoffs ive done, this one has been the most stressfull! :lol: :lol: that 5 week nap i took ,left me with 20 days to get it done. plus...ive never attempted a "pretty" paint job before. i tried to use more vintage parts/less technology than i did with the widowmaker,and im really pleased with the way it came out. once again the talent pool on this site just keeps growing,and the innovative ideas just keep........FLOWing! :lol: insert subliminal message at finish. check! :roll: Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image

John,
Your bikes are always top quality, I really dig your work. This bike is no exception, great blend of vintage parts, classic color combo too.
