Two More Felts

[gigmata]

I have always had a pit
In my stomach when buyers tell me they aren't going to ride the bike I sell them. One guy told me he was putting the bike on a pedestal in the lobby. Good thing it had a drop stand.

The recent acquisition of a 1903 brought a smile to my face. It will mostly become a clone of "Indian Arrow." The Felt Vintage Iron is going to be stripped of its identity but not the number plates. They will be replaced (maybe) after the frame is stripped naked and powder coated something completely different.

. Then after it's all finished I am putting it on a wall in the foyer of my house as artwork - never to be ridden.

When you run out of room for your builds let me know, I'm sure I can find space.

When you and the wife come back my way I have a room for you too.

She's wanting to travel again next summer, I was just offered a job with the local school system. So you never know.

Must have been a sweet deal.
Im not big on felts, but i do dig this frame set up.
Please fix the front fender...
The mud flap dangling over the front tire is almost paintful...
How do people not notice that...

I wouldn't mind seeing that 1903! Now that sounds like a cool project.

I think the vintage iron is way cool as it sits, not sure I'd ride it, but love the look.
I think the front fenders came reversed like that, not sure about the mud flap though.
