Hey there everyone.. as I mentioned on my Re introduction post, I dropped out of this Hobby a few years back. So with that said, I'd like to show you all what brought me back..
I happened to be browsing Craigslist and came across this.
At first glance she didnt look like much but caught my interest anyway due to it being a springer.
Then I noticed the grips, sprocket, and deluxe pedals.. Thought to my self "This could have been a Phantom" and well I've always wanted one, so I met the guy and brought it home.
I took it apart cleaned it up, and made some adjustments to make her a decent rider. I found original red paint inside the head tube and black in the crank case, add the fact that the springer is the locking type, and I was convinced!
Naturally the only thing that would make sence at this point would be to go on the hunt for parts..which I did. While I did manage to find some missing priginal parts..
I found a gentleman parting out a 90s repop and sourced the seat, fenders and pedals from him.. I will eventually repaint the whole thing again and not rush it this time.. and will send all the chrome out to get redone.
And well..here she is!

Black and red is always a beautiful color combination. Great stance too.
