well still time to hate something on it and halve to hunt for other parts. will not know till I throw it all to gather an have a look. what's in my head might not rock when applied to bike.. plenty of time to dial the look and ride in.
Ok found bars and a stem I can live with. the stems a little to nice for this fugly rust frame. but so is the cranks. when paint on bars and forks are done. chrome did not feel wright on this build. but size was near perfect. so will paint over the bars chromes shot. but not enough to fit...
dug threw the spar parts boxes and swung by the local swap meet to grab some low cost tubes.
and tires. just need to buy rim strips and I can start mocking it up. huffy seat may haft to go. not very speed rocket shaped..
