Thanks! Is there a discount code to put in to get the discount?

WWI era Bulgarian Bike pictures. If they post right....

I'm getting ready to go to Bulgaria for a few weeks. I like to poke around antique shops and such there. Any idea if there would be any interesting bike stuff to find there? I'm thinking old lights, bells, seats. I've been there a number of times, but not since I got back into bikes. A websight...

Fun idea. Stain glass supply stores sell an acid designed to put a nice patina on lead. It may look nice with the other black details on the bike. I have been thinking about doing some lost wax casting, but maybe I have been overthinking it.

uh, yep. That would be it.

dunno, but I'm trying a Simplex stick shift on one this weekend.

Texas is great, but there is a downside. I'll tell you about it when summer roles around...

Wow Trash, that came out great! It looks like a big money paint job.

This is the clear stuff I was talking about. http://www.amazon.com/Dupli-Color-Effex ... B000WFATHM

are you sanding with a sanding block, or holding the paper in your hand? bondo should be invisible. I put a few coats of primer over the bondo and do light block sanding before paint.

Looks like a fun ride. Tell me more about the motor please. 4 stroke? what size? How much $$? centrifical clutch?

Here's how my try with the auto parts store flake clear came out. I like went over black. It looks better in person (of course..)

Well thanks guys, you saved me some bucks there.

I sprayed some fenders with that flake clear. On top of white paint the results were so-so, but on top of black it really looks cool. I will try to post up some pictures tomorrow.
