the last pic has an eveil lil girl looking like she is going to dropp her ice cream and ride out on your bike.. you better watch her.. she looks sneaky... i love the build this came out excptional...

[Peatbog]

Thanks guys, I appreciated all the words of encouragement during this build as it helped keep the wheels cranking. Also, thanks to those who voted on the bike.

JJBones, one of the things I watched closely during your build was your seat. I used what looked to be the same seat for a bike I build a year or two ago. I cut down the foam and used glue also. However, I didn't use staples on the bottom. I just wrapped it around and glued it to the bottom of the pan. That actually worked until this summer when it was about 95 degrees for months straight. One day I went out to the garage and the leather (fake leather anyway) was peeling up in several places from the bottom of my seat. I am going to have to staple it like you did.

Jaysmo, you may be right. That girl does look sneaky--the ice cream could just be a diversion!

Cool! I want to see that. There is a lot of character in those Iversons.

Super cool. Nice work!

Thanks, street pirate. Next bike, I might have to try that glitter paint you used on your Rat Salad bike. That was sweet.

with how much trouble it was, next time I would buck up for the fat Roth flakes. It would probably be cheaper with how many rattle-cans I used!

[Peatbog]

Thanks for the advice! I know how quickly paint costs can add up even with a much simpler paint job than you did. It was sweet though.

That is over the top,nice job!!! MB
