Man A.C., you don't mess around! If you do the same kink of work on this like what you did with your O.C.C. bike, it'll be another stand-out set of wheels! lookin' forward to it! 8)

Re: the eliminator

forks are painted! got to work early this morning so i knocked them out. gonna start some reassembling of this thing tonight.

Re: the eliminator

Wow, nice job on the forks! They look mint, It'd be impossible to tell they were stretched unless you knew. Did you use any filler, or just a bunch of welding,filing and grinding? Nice work, I'm looking forward to seeing this go back together.
