That Shelby Y frame is killer!!!!
Welcome to the Build Off!!!
PICTURE POSTING TIP: Select the FULL IMAGE button when you upload your pics so that we see them full size without having to click on the thumbnails to embiggen them.
 
Welcome to the ratty world of an RRB build off! Keep those posts comin'...and..
RaT oN~!
 
Love the Shelby!

Might need to check that fork. Not sure if it's just the camera angle but it looks like it might be pushed back a little.
Hi There ,
Yes, it is slightly pushed back, I have never straightened a fork before, but hopefully its safe to ride. No cracks in tube just slightly bent
CHEERS
 
Oops! Looks like you've already transferred your new photos / progress over here. My bad.
RaT oN~!
 
The 'good Dr T' has given the perfect diagnosis ^ on this build so far! T n' Q tires on the black rims, your perfect blue match to grips / saddle / paint ( tell us how you made that happen? ), that stellar paint job with the darts, and your cleaning up of the vintage chrome ( foil and muriatic (?) acid ? )

The stance from those side views is killer! You just got my attention in a big way!
 
Paint turned out great.
The Thick and Quick tire combo looks good too.
Is that fork bent a little?

It happened one afternoon after a couple of lemonades... i was looking at some oars i painted for a feature on outside cladded wall. and i use phosphoric and foil for the chrome clean up

Thanks for the visual and insight into your process! Now I can see where your paint idea Oar-riginated from... :wondering: :wink1:
 
I like the look of that the way she sits. Guards or fenders on the wheels will hide that beautiful tire set up I think. All of that black tire and white wall showing really sets off this build!
