The Roosevelt

[FOUND OBJECTS]

Before:

Well here's how it sits now...It'll take some time, but I hope to get it looking spiffy.

 

[FOUND OBJECTS]

Here's where I'd like it to go in the future...

 

[FOUND OBJECTS]

Finally straightened up the garage...Now I have a proper work space.

 

[FOUND OBJECTS]

Nope...nothing new here...Should have some parts soon though...

 

[Galtbacken]

I've totally missed this one! Looks like it's on it's way to spiffyness!

 

[KOTA]

Bars are perfect on that bike....How about a little bobbed fender on the front? About 8-10 inches, no braces. matching the back. ..Just an "opinion".

If you want to go the custom way, I would have to second this.

Honestly though, this bike is going to look spiffy no matter what. It's cool as it is now! :mrgreen: Love that huge tank. I'll be looking forward to any changes.

I'm currently in the hunt for a set of rims for this bad boy.
I'd like a set of red or chromies.
If I have to buy a Big Daddy to get a set, then so be it...Not that I would mind :mrgreen:
Everyone has there wheelsets priced way too high...The big Daddy has great value and extra parts for future builds
I wonder if the K-mart 20 miles up road has one?
I'd go check it out but we are being advised to stay inside due to the weather :shock:
Yeah...It's that bad out. I've seen 10 foot drifts :shock:

I'd save those fenders. Use 'em, go "naked" or find another to chop. It's always sweet to have those old parts. :wink:

Just ordered a set of rims, ding dong bell, and a rear rack for it!
Threw a seat on it already and am excited to see how it'll look...

Yes they do.
I order a set of Rims for $20.00 from a guy on here though.
I might order a big dady too though because I want red rims for this build :mrgreen:
Plus I need the parts for another build...

One Word ... PACKERS!

 

[FOUND OBJECTS]

Put the seat on and did some switching around...
Put the Fizik seat on "The Gilly" Taken off from the 1959 Columbia...
Then put the leather hairpin saddle on "The Roosevelt" and aded a chunky ding dong.

More later I guess :mrgreen:
