The new "oldy"

[englishwheeler]

I decided to join in the build off with my new bike I bought from Target. Since we need to have an original frame, I thought this was as good as any. Sorry I don't have a "before" picture, but I'm sure you've all seen the "Schwinn" repops in the stores. That's what this was. Now I'm going for a seasoned boardtrack racer look. No paint. The only thing I have done to the frame so far is re-welded it using Silicon Bronze filler rod. I think it gives it a nice contrast and makes it look old.

I've got more work to do, but I thought I'd show some progress pictures for now. I love what everyone else is doing. These build offs a kinda cool.

I could see them by copy and pasting the url's into a new browser window.

The natural metal finish and engined turn tank plate is awsome! Nice work!

I agree, that tank plate is sweet.
