I bought this thing...Because it was free. With a purchase of 2 drum brakes. But I cant just sell it in its original shape!
I got a spare wheel, and those are the 2 drum brake wheels.
The HUGE seat tube was welded on, Cut that off and working on doing a wedge seat post. I also cut off all of the tabs on the frame. The bike must have been beaten to HECK. There is re-welds here and there. Im sure they are sound, it came from a shop specializing in that sort of thing. The bars are going on another bike, and the seat has been sold.
Here is that huuuuuge seat tube.
When i cut it off, i didnt realize there was a seat post inside, so i gotta remove that...or push it in...doesnt matter!
Random tabs on the frame i removed:
ready for grindin'
primed...(thought i took more pictures...probably left on my phone)
Gotta get the paint smooth and finish it up. TOO COLD in that garage.
Why dorothy?
For whatever reason i thought of the movie Twister, and the fact that the tornado recording machine thingys were named dorothy.
So this one is going to get dorothy stickers somewhere, and Its going to be all flat black, and a wood bed out back. MORE TO COME SOON!
