paint wanted to see if it would last and it does as long as i dont skid

[70mustangmatt]

i took this thing for a cruise after the mock up and i should've called her shake rattle and roll. i need to make more struts for the fenders to kill the noise also not sure if i want to paint it or not?

Welcome to the build off, it's good to see someone start with the kind of bikes I get around here, usually 8 different layers of paint from being stolen at least that many times! haha

[70mustangmatt]

thanks i think thats what ill do but im not sure how to paint the tank
that is if i can figure out how to make one or can find one for under 50$

[70mustangmatt]

i figured out that this bike was either a phantom or a streamliner i think that ill restor it in the future so no cutting or welding on this project
