looks super cool! do you know the manufacturer of the frame?
 
Excellent work. Not your everyday "Garden" variety bike. The RAKE really made this a true chopper. And the SHOVEL made it a rat. And the American flag, well that just makes it AWESOME!!!

Mom did a killer job saving that Elgin for you too! Whatever you do, don't paint that one. That is some gorgeous original paint. Even has the high end Stewart Warner Floating Hub up front.

I just spent a minute looking for a literal garden implement rake before I realized what you meant. :bigsmile:
There's a hammer and a shovel, why not a rake??

*Then spent another 30 seconds after writing and before posting to double check there wasn't a rake

He may still have a true rake planned. There isn't going to be anything left to put in the new she shed. :D
