I did a little mini restoration on a bike that I got from a friends back yard. I have no idea how long it had been sitting back there. I got some new wheels, 26x2.35 white walls, chain, grips, seat, laid back seat post, new headset and had the crank tightened up. Now its riding nice and smooth. I am a big guy at 6'5" so the laid back seat post was a requirement. I have raised the seat since I took these pictures. I also have some mini apes that I am going to put on the bike to make it fit me a little better.
Anyways, here are the pictures.

And this is another bike that I am working on. Got the frame from a buddy of mine. Even as long as it is, I still need it to be about 4 inches longer to fit my long legs. Its a novelty bike that I can take to some car shows or run around at the tour de fat and stuff like that. Not the comfortable cruiser type. This one is a work in progress for sure.
Mocked up with a springer and the handle bars off my cruiser and some spare parts laying around the house.
Anyways, here are the pictures.
