Made some custom valve cap covers out of some old 7.62x39mm rifle cases, head stamped from 1975.

I found this awesome light, I thinking of using on the rear fender.

Pretty sure the taillight is from a mid-30's Ford! If you don't use it, let me know!

Did not know that, now I feel bad I was planing on cutting it up a little bit :shake:.
 
Super excited ratrodz hooked me up with a awesome McCauley rear rack.

Clear coated the whole bike today, I decided not to do anything to the fenders just left them as is sprayed them with some clear and called it good. I also aged and blended the details I painted on the frame.

I wanted to show the tubes I used in my wheels set, I love using old original tubes whenever I can there much nicer then anything you can buy today.

Thanks OddJob.
 
Darts and wheelset and fenders and patination really came out well.
I like the fender light idea too.
Great build man, it's all coming together nicely.
 
Put together the bike today, everything fit like a glove.

Huffman looks great! I love the pedals! Liked them so much I went straight to Ebay to find a pair for myself....then I saw the cost!!! That's more than I have in the rest of my bike!!

Sucks to be cheap sometimes! :bigsmile:

"Patination"....that's a good one King. Might have to work that in...
