Well, this will be my first time involved in the RRBBO and pretty much my first build ever. We'll see how far I get and how far of a competition I am with all the talented people on here. I first introduced a pair of Huffy his and her Good Vibration bikes that I found at a flea market, HERE. My build will consist of the man's bike so that it can be my cruiser and my personal beater, but with a look that embodies my personality.

Here is the first pic I took of her. Her name is Donna.

Welcome to the build off, I am guessing from your inspiration pics it will be staying red!

Luke.
Well, my initial plan is to keep the color and patina with some clear, but once I get new wheels and tires will determine if I stay with that plan or not.

And thanks for the welcomes.
 
Nice inspiration choices and good starting point.
Welcome to RRB and BOTEN.
Have fun.
 
Welcome to RRB and the BO! I like your ideas....
 
Quick update since I haven't replied in 2-1/2 months. ..... Not much progress, but buying parts.
Sidenote: bought a tandem and it slipped in as my main project for my wife's vintage rental business. I will now post a new Build since I started it after this one and hopefully it will be done in a week or two.
