Good to see you back at it with this baby!!
Love how teh guard turned out. Also love the headbadge finkish work.
 
Yeah I've been waiting on some parts especially a shimano lark shifter. Been over a month that I won it.hopeefully tomorrow ill get my rear rim back. Then I can powder coat it.then probably another month for the chrome. Stay tuned.
 
Did some more work. My rear rim came back all laced up. I powder coated it red also powder coated my front fender,handlebar risers,and the fender brackets. The chrome should be ready soon.

.A little bumbed because the tires I ordered dont fit.The rear rim is an S-7. and the front tire is a 24x1 3/8 which is like an inch bigger than the 24' rim i have. I guess tires just aint tires.I think i found a rear tire,its a 26x2x1 3/4 it says it will fit an S-7 rim. The front i think i need a 24x 1 3/4 not 3/8. Well still waiting on the chrome hopefully not too much longer.
 
Oh yeah, this is going to be cool... 8)

That's really looking slick!
 
just a little update, got the rear tire on. The grips,brake levers,and front tire are on the way.I got a little creative with the pedals had some old rat traps i powder coated them white and painting a Von Dutch flying eyeball on the ends. Also been working on the rear fender,did tons of body work on it finished spraying it today. Gonna pinstripe the sides and some scroll work on the rear of it.Ive been busy on the bike havent forgot about it. Will get pics up soon. Here is a pic with the rear tire on. well I cant seem to get my pics from photobucket has there been any changes or problems with that. Is there any other sites I can use instead
