    So the repop cheap krate springer I had laying around had severely bent legs ( why my friend gave it to me ) , the 700c long fork set the front end up too high for my eye , so dug through my fork pile and found the original chrome fork my spaceliner came with and it gives it the perfect look I...

    A hodge podge of cool pieces laying around is kinda making a real cool and almost free little project.

    Had to peek real fast before taking it apart. The back of the seat needs to come up some obviously and may go with a shorter 26 fork. Looks about right here but with a front tire it may be too high up front. Mocked up the wheelie bar , still need to add skateboard wheels. Gonna...

    Getting there. A little flake and a lot of clear and should be fine.

    Not too cold today , went ahead and threw a bit of automotive primer on the frame and then a taste of wimbledon white on the tank sides and headbadge area. Tomorrow the tank side pattern and headbadge design will be taped off and a vintage gold color shot over the whole thing. Then it will be...

    Hoping for at least 3 pity votes , as many as 5 for the misfits song title reference , 2 to 4 for the lace work , and up to 3 for the esso grips. Haha

    Gonna be cheaper than a $20 dollar lace job. Think kinda ugly stripper pretty , just keep the lights kinda dim and enjoy from a distance. .... Wednesday supposed to be warm ish so I'm gonna try to get the frame in a vintage gold relic job with a little gold flake and lace section on the...

    Hoping for time to make a wheelie bar. I think that would work well on this one

    Psycho 78'

    Had to take a peek. The 29 inch fork gives it a chopper vibe. Supposed to have a few warmish days coming up to get it in a paint job. Leaning toward a gold flake with maybe some patterns on the tank. Going to use all parts I have laying around and only purchase a new whitewalls for...

    In the interest of a little less spending and a little less time because of other projects and in the interest of using and repurposing I'm going to eliminate the fire truck theme and just do a Frankenstein muscle bike. The esso grips wouldn't have worked with the fire truck idea , and the...

    Had to peek. Have my 24 inch ten speed varsity on the stand for a little tinkering then I'll get this one put together to test fit before any finishes. It's different for sure !

    Paint job will probably be a "Relic " job rather than a patina job. Think reissue stratocaster relic paint. Beat on to a degree but still shiny. Well played with but garage kept. ish. Will probably create some cool reverse stencil logos and use that deep blood red engine paint. A fire...
