Murray built brazing

I kinda like how the Traditional and Unlimitted builds are all in the same sub-forum this year. It should lend itself well for more cross-pollenation of views and comments. 23 total builds already!!

Me too. Yes, they did come loose easier than I expected. I had already sprayed them with a little PB Blaster when I brought the frame home. I expected more of a fight. The crank nuts moved pretty freely. I only had the cut the crank arm because the weld was fat and ugly.

No, they are original. You can see on on the headtube as well. There are a few bikes back then that had these. I agree about the grease going all over inside thought.

I'm happy with the outcome of day 1. End result is a semi cleaned frame only that I can now experiment with.

Got to try out my dewalt portable work table i found on fb marketplace for twenty bucks. This thing turned out to be awesome for bike work super easy to apply clamps to secure the work. As I cut off the welded crank and broke loose the bb and fork nuts, I also took some pics of how beautiful my...

Great to see your rebooted version back in the fun and building brother!

Special Delivery.... Loads of Love

Killer Kuts so far. This should be fun!

After your quad hauler, the world needs a Skipton geometry stretched out industrial cruiser.

Always cool to watch you do your muscle bike magic. Midnight Flash is a cool name too.

Love that DX. The paint has a perfect ratina on it with all of the right details still showing up well. Killer base for a cool build!

I think @jd56 is going to MemoryLane

LeTerd de Blanco has a nice ring to it.
