I use plastic razor blades I picked up at NAPA. You can find them on amazon too. They pose no risk to scratching the paint. With just a touch of the heat gun and a plastic razor all the stickers seem to come off with no fuss or muss. Any left over residue seems to come off with WD40 or...

There are cream tires here... http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=38659&start=0

Those are some special moments you guys created. Thank you! My world is a better place just knowing that I'm sharing it with you. And Steve aka "Rat Rod", all bunnies aside... Thank you too!

I was riding my "King Kobra" dyno build around Belltown this afternoon and part of this evening. Just slow cruising on a glorious day among the crowd of people in town related to SeaFair. Cant think of anything else I'd have rather been doing anywhere on earth to be honest.

It's called a "Girvin Elite". I trimmed the canti bosses off it and did consider putting a disk brake mount on. It's an 90's suspension fork for off road. For this bike it's a very functional springer fork that is more interesting than either a schwinn or monarch styled one. I'd say it rides...

Just went out cruising the neighborhood. It was a fun taking time to go riding for a couple of hours. The major details needed are a cobra shifter mounted under the seat, badges for the tank, a headlight, getting my spare chain guard detailed with "King Kobra", putting the shelby logo on the...

It's a rider though there are some bits to complete sometime.

Got "THE CALL" from the powder coat tonight. I'm going to go pick it up tomorrow. It was a FUN call, there was no mistaking how happy the guy calling was about how it came out.

With a roller brake would work in my Slick Daddy... I don't think I can keep the front fender going to an 80 but a disk hub is easy to come by. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Shimano-Alfine-SG-S500-8-Speed-Internal-Hub-32H-/180925299113?pt=Cycling_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a1ffcf9a9

I've been looking for a nexus coaster with 32h since he posted them in the for sale. :)

http://www.choppersus.com/store/product/1136/Wheel-Covers-20%22-White/ He's also got them in black. I have a pair on a quad angle. There are a couple tutorials in building them with spandex and epoxy but I'm a bit lazy for that, especially at this price point.

This was here in Seattle. I do have a few upgrades in mind but it's down on the list and I have to pay off some powder coating that will be done next week or the week after before I'll have any budget. FUN!
