Re: SCHWINNRAY69 v.s. CCR muscle bike buildoff

NO :x :x :x :x :x I'm mad. I brought it there a month and a half ago :shock: If I don't get it by Friday, I'm bringing it home and hand sanding it :roll:
 
Re: SCHWINNRAY69 v.s. CCR muscle bike buildoff

Finally got it sandblasted they are priming it for me :mrgreen: Not sure on what to use for paint, I want a flaked red or a flaked coppertone color :? Anyone know of a good brand :?:

Pics to come :mrgreen:

I think that risks are implied any time a 30 year old guy tries to ride a kids bike :lol:

I'll be sure to let you guys know when i go down ... don't want to miss any "I TOLD YOU SO's"

I'm 40.........I don't feel so bad about almost wiping out twice... 8)

where would you go about buying that paint....and how dose it compare to schwinn's blue? :D

I got the paint at Home Depot for about $5 a can :wink: The Schwinn blue you want is lighter than this, and doesn't have as much metal flake :D

different bars and a shorter fork .... im beginning to wonder does that look like a 20" springer to you guys ??? i'm starting to think the other one was a 26" and now this one might be a 24" springer
... man the storage unit is dark :lol:
leaving the fender for now, but i still might ditch it and i still think it would look better with a shorter fork and a fatter tire up front...
