Re: Board Track Build (yet to be named) I've officially changed to another bike, this is a Schwinn Drifter 2010, that I bought myself for my last birthday. Right now, the build is still a bit messy, but all that I've done so far hasn't taken very long, so I should be able to still get this...

Re: Modern Muscle (Foremost Swinger Build) or Board track racer? New stuff, and possibly the beginning of another project bike, less than a week before the build-off ends!

Re: Modern Muscle (Foremost "Swinger" Build) well,now all that's left to do is paint the sprocket, and order (or make :) ) some handlebars... But, I think I just started and nearly finished another bike, that I like more than the first. :?

Re: Modern Muscle (Foremost "Swinger" Build) Anyone know where to find some 8 or 9 inch rise ape-hanger handlebars???

I was thinking some low rise, say 8in.-ish, ape hangers. But I can't find 'em anywhere.

^Nope!! DK Helio. :)

Re: Modern Muscle (Foremost "Swinger" Build) I doubt I'll be able to fit it in time for the build off, anyone know a tank that'd fit the double top-tube of this bike??? :?

Alright then, I'm moving this over from the "builds" section of the forum. I know its a little late in the build off, but I think I can finish in time. Here's a link to the build thread so far... http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=43076&p=420989#p420989 I decided to theme...

yeah, I need to get to finding some new handlebars. :roll: Anybody have an idea on what style handlebar to use???

^ yeah, definitely!!! Now I just have to learn to wheelie good. :P But I'm definitely entering in the build-off. I should be back building on Sunday-night/Monday, as I'm going to Nashville to visit some family, and hit a few skateparks with one of my other custom bikes... :D :D :D

Re: Foremost "Swinger" custom build... tada!!! I found a perfect fitting BMX quill style stem in my garage, and borrowed some pedals off another cruiser in the garage. I'm thinking about tinting the reflectors on the pedals red to match the paint. Also I'll be painting the inserts on the...

Re: Foremost "Swinger" custom build... I found a guy near me that could weld, so I cut off an old pair of wrecked ape-hangers and had one side welded to a 22mm post. I'll post pics later. I'm trying to go with a '67 Camaro theme. Now I just need to widen the dropouts, find a stem and some...

Re: Foremost "Swinger" custom build... I really have no idea what to do for the seat post. could anyone give some input on that???

Re: Foremost "Swinger" custom build... Here it is after some more work. still need to find bolts for the fenders, and widen the rear dropouts to fit the 3/8 in. axle on my back wheel. then she'll officially be a roller!!! close-up of the custom banana seat. my custom touch to the chaingaurd...

Re: Foremost "Swinger" custom build... so what do you guys think? any suggestions? I still need to figure out what to do for pedals, handlebars, and several other key items, so any good ideas would be much appreciated. :)

hello, I'm new on here, but have been looking at the gallery pics for years wishing I could do something like this. I'm building up a 1967 Foremost "Swinger" muscle bike. This bike was given to me by my awesome Uncle, who had owned it as his first bike when it was new, then it served as my...
