So I am posting this as done!!! I was contemplating on adding the fork darts and I appreciate the opinion of the board but I'm cutting costs here especially since the darts wouldhave been 2/3 of what I actually paid for the bike itself. I had a great time thru the hole process and feel like my skills and handywork have grown. Im probably not winning the buildoff but I got a bike Im happy with so thats all I need.

So without further ado.....

And the "crown jewel" of the build a custom headbadge I had made by my friend who is a jewlery artist. Who dosent love pinups with all the right curves!!!! She can make any of her designs into a badge and do custom work. All at resonable rates and fast turnarounds. Here is her website now show her some love...... http://www.fasterthanyou.net/

i like that! alooot! its really really clean! looks like theres some competition :mrgreen:
 
Great job. Dig the headbadge, overall paint scheme (especially the chain guard) and the fenders. She's a beauty.
 
Good job!!! I like all the details you've put in, especially the head badge! You're right, i can't say no to a pin up!
 
That is C 8) 8) L

Diggin' the bobbed fenders with the apes, clean, cool look :wink:
 
Don't sell yourself short! Your bike is very well done. Very nice details that all tie together. I like it a lot!
 
I have to add to the praise: clean, simple & elegant. A great job! :D :D :D

For the first time in my life something I have done has been refered to as "elegant". I am a million times more proud to have it come from a gentleman named Elmer!!!! Thanks bud I appreciate the compliments.
 
Hey joe,
That bike has come a long wat since last I saw it. You got a good eye for this rat bike thing.
I bet it turns a few heads out in the neighborhood.
