Grocery getter, @Brian macumber ? :p

Anything to get @Chad T back in the build off fold! RaT oN~!

@The Renaissance Man , the filter is an 'overlay' on my Kindle Fire called "Vintage". Not sure on the fenders. I'll run a test once I start working it on Wednesday.

Clue #5. Something in the 'rear view mirror'...

You got the 1920's part right, I believe. Once the frame is revealed in full, next Wednesday, you will see the subtle differences from this one ^^ and mine.

Clue #4, TRM asked for a 'front end' shot. This is as front as it gets! :bigsmile:

Love me a klunker build! Have a stash of all kinds of old skool mtb parts and such. Let me know if you have needs as the build progresses.

That's what I've been doing all week, riding my previous vintage builds and thinking about ideas for the RRB BO19 build!

I don't believe it's a Fauber. The circles in mine don't have that little 'crown' in them, and my crank arm is a dog leg on the drive side.

Clue #4 to my BO 19 build. Can't put anything by @kingfish254 ! He saw a nubbin of a shadow in this 'Horshack shadow test' and figured out it had this saddle on it. And here is a close up of the saddle...

You don't want to use that cool 5 speed freewheel?

@Pondo and @MattiThundrrr , the photo thought struck me as I walked past the mustard sale rack, 98 cents per bottle. My first thought was,"That's a good deal!" and then a big smile spread across my face "Especially for rat rod bike builders!" 😁

Clue #3 in the 'What's OddJob Building' challenge...

A real basket case, eh? EDIT: I guess I should read other comments before I post. @kingfish254 ...like minds. 😁

Tubing bender? I sense some vintage-y mod 'Pilot' frames coming! (I think Pilot might already be a bike company name, but it would be perfect for you!)

This might be a little out there for some if you weren't around or didn't have access to 'Welcome Back Kotter', a diverse and inclusive TV show that aired in the late '70s. Clue #2 to what I am building for BO19...I call it the 'Bike Shadow - aka Horshack Test'. :bigsmile: Anybody...

It sounds like you are talking about a Class 2 build, and if you are cutting the frame up after, meaning that you will be showing a "what I am starting with" mock up; I don't see anything wrong with that. That's my .02.

@kingfish254 , that's one curvy bird!

I got my first taste as a 'true' grandpa (I have 3 beautiful step-grand girls who are all grown up) this past November. I have to admit, there is no other love like this! @handyandy1100 , we will miss you in the BO 19, but you could document your build along the way in the Other Builds forum...
