Huffy built Hiawatha Warrior GTO

I keep hearing tell of a muscle bike build off! I’m down for another as well!

I painted the guard, put on the new transition decals, and put the Free Spirit decal on the guard, but unfortunately I stuck the decal on the guard off the bike. I matched the bottom of the letters to the bottom edge of the guard thinking that would be level on the bike - but I was wrong! I’m...

Thanks!
