So I threw some wheels, crank & a seat on this thing & hopefully will take it for a ride tonight. Next step is to do a little sanding & the primer it. What color do you guys think? I was thinking flat black with silver forks but then again I was thinking about a metal flake paint & silver forks. This thing is 11 feet long.

Metal flake it out. You can get cans of metal flake clear, spray it over some wild candy color.
 
I've got a set of wheels and tires from a Schwinn OCC chopper, they're a little rusty, but you'd just have to clean/paint them and put a freewheel on the rear. PM me if you're interested. I was thinking about keeping them for future use, but if you need 'em, I don't mind!
 
hey brah my first chopper i made was waaaaay long like that one. please put a gusset in the neck tube of that bike.
the stress that neck is going to go through it is just a matter of time when it will snap. THANK GOD mine went just cruzin down the road and
not when i was pushing 45 mph down hill in shorts and a tee shirt.
 
Well I primed, wet sanded, painted the bike a light orange color using Krylon & then sprayed glitter & then clear coat. Also covered the seat in some zebra that I had left over from another project. Trying to get this thing ready for the show this up coming Saturday since it's the only bike I have now.
