Fun and simple rat...not bad for a rusty ole 1959 phillips I found on craigslist for free!
Had a hard time with the tires...shhhh the whites are painted on dont tell anyone...Im working on getting the 3spd to shift, a tall custom shift lever...and the speedo to work and she is fo' sale...
Yep...after cussin' and screamin' tryin' to do a mock up without a jig & a bunch of loose parts really bites...but I'm sick in the head I really the stance and the chrome but two tone paint should really set it off!?! Lets see if I can make some brackets and make my welder work!!! Keep ya posted!
SCORE!!! Hopped on craigslist this morning after some biscuits and gravy, hunting for a free 10spd tire...ended up with 12 free vintage RUSTY bikes...some rare with working speedos! (heck yeah)! but im STILL GUNNA DO THE BMX FRAME to many idea battin' thru my thick skull!! keep ya posted!
Re: "LAKE PARTY!" rat build entry FRONTEND MOCK UP!!!
