Rat Rocket!!

[Markm]

OK...I'm in!!! Old rusty Monark Rocket. It was yard-art at a guy down the streets house. He knew I was interested so he gave it to me! Forks are shot, guard is gone, rims are wasted and seat and bars are way GONE!! So pretty much just the frame will be used.Idon't know if I'll get good enough weather to paint or not but we'll see what happens! Good luck to all and let the games begin!!

Guitar strap cut into strips. Points cut in ends and a hole punched through both ends. Add "heavy Metal" stud and BAM...Hub shiners!

Can't use the tank w/the springer...need to cut the steer tube down a little...the only paint left on the frame is where the tank was..!! Now a guard,seat and bars and?????

...one way to go..not sure if I like it...got alot more parts to try on...

made a spacer for the rear fender out of brake parts. puts it a little tighter to the tire.

found some brass threaded end caps for who-knows-what and they fit the axle...kinda cool.

i love bikes that have more surface rust on them than paint like that. cool find and i dig the little detail parts like the brass end covers.
