When I first got the bike back, it looked like this... Not a big fan of the red...

First thing first, flip the handlebars... Then replaced the tires with some swap meet specials, black walls...

Grabbed a rattle can, and went to work on the frame... Left the fenders alone...

Now this is where boredom overtook me and my spray can... Sprayed the fenders(regretted it later). Ended up removing the front fender too...

Picked up some new "grips", added a rear rack, and picked up a garage sale crate...

This is my first shot at a bike build. "Its the ugliest thing I've ever seen!", my old man said... I thought to myself, "Its Perfect!"

Gets me to the liquor store and back...
