Postby sensor on Fri Feb 29, 2008 8:57 pm

well i guess ill toss my hat in the ring too :mrgreen:
had a frame sitting in the garage awaiting death at the dump so ill give it alittle(pun intended) new life.....
this started life as a womans huffy 26" 3 speed(like the one Rat Rod picked up not to long ago). it will end up as either garbage or a ridable bike for my boy when hes tall enough. yeah...............
heres some of the carnage ive inflicted since i got off work tonight :lol:

I think it takes a lot more imagination to "shorten" a bike, then it does to stretch it. I like the bike, your shoes...... I'm not so sure. :roll:
