My Daughters chopper

[Kustom Kreator]

Well I guess I should post pics of this one too!! I built this one for my Daughter in 2003 for a Christmas present. Started with a girls Schwinn Caliente. Cut 7 or 8 inches out of the parallel tubes and welded it back together with reinforcing inside the tubes. Removed the seat stays from the seat tube, cut 7-8 inches off of the seat tube and bent the seat stays down to meet up with the seat tube again and welded back together.

Had a 20 on the back with a 16 up front for mock up but ended up with 16 in hte back and 12 in the front. I ground down all the welds, applied some bondo, primered it with 2 part urethane primer and finished it with the geo tracker color in basecoat/clearcoat. Last picture was taken Christmas day.
