Pictures will have to wait maybe tommorow, I have the frame sanded and painted for the base, I am going to have to modify the frame for my shifter installation I got some bead blasting done on the shifter I still have to mock up a couple of things. My plate for the reflector came from Ebay and still not sure if I like the bars, as for the shifter its about two feet long the fact is I dont know what it came off but its a parking brake handle probably from the forties it should stand out a little....if I cant get it to work I will beat Godzilla with it LOL :lol:

Hopefully I can mount it up higher on the front of the triangle and run the shift rod over the crank area. I need to get another spring setup as the old one broke on the release handle (not in picture) I just want to hear the the gears click into position. :mrgreen:

Well got some work done this weekend, I started painting the rear wheel and did alot of mystery razor work on the frame I decided to put the seat back and found a crank to modify for a post. I think I found some other bars to use with the head set. The shifter is going to be interesting to mount I am still working on that also. 8)

Well another weekend, finished my rear wheel I painted my forks bright yellow....not sure if I like it but there is a method to my madness. I found a partial huffy in front of a tire shop and didn't think to much of it till I seen the apple green shifter cables...free for me and I found mystery brackets at a thrift store that looks like they will mount the shifter....slowly but surely Sally's coming :mrgreen:

The pedals still need disassembly and the black is going green to match wheels the front fork is going to be striped like a certain Kleenex box design....hmmmm 8)
