Re: North Carolina RatRodBikers... CHECK IN!
Clayton, NC near Raleigh. I haven't really done much in the hobby lately, but maybe I'll sell off some of my cool bike stash sometime.
Chainguard is a Murray Wildcat, but the rest is not. At first I thought the frame was Huffy because of the sprocket, but the rear dropout has me confused. Definate rat bike with parts from many different bikes.
Re: 1984 MONGOOSE EXPERT BMX
That's the third '84 Mongoose I've seen in the last three days. I didn't jump on either one because I just bought a Haro Revo for $25. The other two sold for $40.
What a great looking two-tone paint scheme on the fenders. I like how they really make the bike look Kustom. She's going to have a really nice bike that will turn heads.
I take my parts into work and use a plastic bead blasting cabinet. It would take me forever to get them down to the bare metal. I wish I had a blasting cabinet, powder coating gear, and an oven to bake the powder coating on parts at my house.
