    Need to ID front hub cone. 1952 Monark

    Well Mr. Fordsnake, I've been gone for a minute. No bike this year. Actually graduated a few months ago to a vintage four wheel wallet drainer, but I specifically checked back in here and then straight to this build off mainly to see what YOU were up to. I am not surprised by what I found...

    Not to be negative, but I can't believe how much of my life I got back since finishing my RRBOB#7 entry: Smokin' in the Boyz Room. I received some very nice, unexpected feedback on my bike and the photos so I chose one to enter into the 2013 RRB calendar. Thanks guys, great group of bikes...

    ~~Smokin' in The Boyz Room~~

    Too bad you're not around here. I'm about 15 minutes away from the Pomona Raceway (Auto Club Raceway), where they hold the NHRA Pomona Winter Nationals. Old, historic neat place. You could've taken some suuuper cool shots there if you could get on the track. It is open and not a soul is...
