I don't think it will matter .... how many will use red wheels and white walls? I only used the Ivy Leaf because I did not find the maroon I wanted in Wally World. This bike really isn't a "build" anyway. No welder, no cutting, no body filler. It is simply a color to flavor, and bolt on things that did not come stock in 65'

P.S. no chaingaurd for a whale!

It was good paint, my boys got in a waterfight yesterday afternoon while another coat was drying. I'm ready to throw in the towel :x

Re: Momma's Boy big brown truck left a box update!

Postby bpellham on Fri Jun 08, 2012 3:16 pm

Brown just dropped off a gift a week early ... when does that happen? Tracking said thursday the 14th. Hey, I'm not complaining!

Sorry about the laundry and the sleeping Sammy cat, but here are my 3 colors, layed out in a "mockup"

I'm more impressed than I had planned. This is coming together better than I had expected. Mom would have loved it, wifey will cherish it (I hope)

I guess getting emotional over this is a healing moment for me. Thank you to all my fellow builders for the support and kind words.

I got a set of super cheap, black torker bars, along with a black stem. All from Amazon.
