Just a touch of rat

Postby Jim Richards on Sun Feb 04, 2007 6:34 pm

This is a roadmaster from the 60's wene the trend was towords the thinner tires. I made the ''mud flap'' from a realastate sign. and the badge with the indian on I cut from the bottom of a stailess steel bowel--the indian chief was hand painted by me. All paint is duplicolor with one-shot lettering enamel for stripes and artwork. All the colors are shades of red--the rims and guard are black cherry--by the way the graphics are my work also.http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster0012.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster005.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/bike.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster0032.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster0062.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster015-1.jpghttp://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p60/JJRbigfan/roadmaster0112.jpg

That's a nice bike. Too bad you don't post those images in the thread.

fenders

Postby Jim Richards on Mon Feb 05, 2007 9:47 pm

If you like bobed fenders take a look at another of my posts on this forum. I build bikse in every ''flavor'' The ''60's'' bike was designed to look like the '68 impala-- and the fenders on this bike are the ''peaked'' type--- and were not all beat-up-- more surface for the ''von duch'' style pinstrips-get it? This wasn't intended to be your average'''bob job.''I have another vintage road master with chrome ''peaked''fenders and a realy cool--star--front sprocket--that I will not bob (chop)for love or money-becouse they are hard to come buy. The fenders I do chop are in such bad con. that i use only the good part --sorry but I don't ''butcher ''good'' fenders just to make a rat.-- you will get it if you are in the game long enogh.
