    First step, cleaning and regreasing the bearings. Have the original fork in right now but will be going with a springer in the very near future as soon as I can find one with a patina (don't want a pretty new one) Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    There's still a lot more I'd like to do, but don't wanna get in over my head and miss the deadline so here's the finished. Old beat up huffy I found, stripped it down, cleaned it up, repainted, bent the front forks just a little more, and took off the basket and fenders. Not as impressive as...

    Finished up today, still a bunch of stuff I want to do, but it'll take longer than the deadline so here is my before and after. All I did was take it apart, clean it, and paint it. Only new parts are the tires and tubes, only mods were bending the front forks a bit. Sent from my SM-G973U using...

    Did a quick mock up to see where I was at, can't decide if I like the fenders or not. May try to fab a tank and add something to the fenders Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    So, back home today, finished breaking down and start rust removal and paint prep. Took everything off of the frame, sanded off all the visible rust, removed all the stickers, bent the front forks slightly to hopefully give it a little lower stance in the front, washed everything off, and primed...

    So I found this community while looking up something for my newest obsession, and just so happened to find it during the middle of this event, so let's see how it goes. I picked up this beat up Good Vibrations for a few bucks and broke it down to clean it up, no idea what I'm doing with it, but...
