I've been collecting parts for some time for a special project. I am going to be building the Alchemist Custom Bicycles version of the Shelby Airflo, one of my all time favorite bikes. It will not be an exact copy, but inspired by one. It'll have 6-8" of stretch, but otherwise look like a vintage bike.
That's right, a stretched Shelby. I've got some beautiful deep fenders, a Colson chain guard, Torrington tear drop pedals, a Higgins Colorflow rack, and a set of Patina Kustoms Shelby-style bars, amongst other things. I will be making the frame, tank, and curved fender braces myself. I'm really nervous about attempting this tank, I've gotta say.
This build might take a long while. Here's some of the starting parts:
