Thanks tank, Finishing up the Kitty Hawk look for the tank. I think everyone here will love it

that sounds perfect. Link?

yes thats the issue. heres a thread with some pics of the bike, im not at home so I cant take any specifics. viewtopic.php?f=21&t=28678 No I dont have lockwashers installed, ive never really built bicycles before this one so I'm not really sure what the order or function of all the washers in...

so how did you end up saving the patina?

Thanks bro. It is getting painted with a shark face theme from the old WW2 bombers, with the same cream color background as the rest of the bike, just working on some custom LED's for the lights, original look, modern tech

Hey guys, doing a boardtrack bike and would like to put a fat headlight on the front? What do most use? Motorcycle lights etc.? And how are they powered? The less wires the better I think.

Just picked up a male 26' Schwinn 1952 straightbar frame, just needs to be blasted and repainted, probably gonna make a custom tank and build a board track. Any idea what theyre usually worth?

So this wasnt really much of a build so far, basically just left the bike all rusty and threw a couple things on it. Eventually ill be making it into a boardtrack/cafe style bike possibly motorized, but for now while I finish C.R.E.A.M. this will be how what i'm rolling around on. How I got it...
