Long low and fast is the goal.... but just really looked at that frame of yours and pretty straight forward...

noodlenoggin, that chainguard does look the same. That bike is a '70s Viscount.
I look forward to seeing your Vista project when it's done.

@Daytona Rat: Cool builds! I particuarly like that second one and the red one. I'm normally not big on trikes, but I like that one with the suspension fork.

Real Cool, I am from Auburndale Fl but I'm bad it although every part I have is no good for me to use so I don't have anything done yet.


Two I have are what someone did already before I got them but some the parts are bad on the first bike so it's not as good as in the photos except for the Mercury bike which whatever kid that did it before the last owner got it did a good job & it's still rideable.

My Christine bike that I have been trying to do and she still needs painted but I can't do it myself since I am bad at it so I have to wait until I can get the money to get someone to paint it for me and I need to figure out how to put the V on the headtube.

My 68 Stingray Project, again I can't get afford to get any parts for it to get it done.
