The deed is done. Now I need to age it to match the rest of the bike. I have a rack I’ll mock up later as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Need some help on paint options. I’m thinking the top stays need to be bolted behind the main springer struts instead of in front in addition, maybe paint the leaf spring and steel struts the same color as the fork and frame? That way it looks somewhat factory. Sent from my iPhone using...

Wow! Thanks guys! I thought I lost you guys with the spring fork dilemma. On to power! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is a really cool bike. Repainted by a bike shop in Atlanta Circa 1960’s and resold there. New wheels and tires. Recovered old seat. Great beater bike or rat rod as is. $350 SHIPPED anywhere in the US Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think you two are the only guys following this build anymore so thank you! The fender cut out was to allow the fender room so that it would not scrape the top of the tire when in action. I’ll clean up that raw cut a little more later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hopefully I haven’t lost everyone’s interest yet. I finally figured out the fender situation. The stays had to bolt on in two different places and I had to notch the fender for the leaf spring but it was all done in similar ways to the old motorcycle leaf spring forks. Sent from my...

Added this cool “Edison” water slide decal on the tank. Also found a cool seat and bar option. Still a long way to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Actually no, it was don’t by an artist who had a thing for schwinn design! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can’t help but get inspired after picking up this over the weekend. “Streamline” is a beautiful thing isn’t it. Sold to a customer with a Schwinn Aerocycle but a work of art like this will get you in the mood for 30’s design. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve slowed down on the bicycle collecting to focus on finding good stuff for my shop in downtown Atlanta. (70’s and 80’s roadbikes and 3 speeds) Luckily an old contact called me and let me know this was going to be for sale. One of the coolest things I’ve ever found. A 3D model of the 1930’s...

Last years went about 20 mph. This one will be lighter and 52v instead of about 40. That should translate to speed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The easy part is over. The fork and tank are patina matched to the frame. Here is where it starts to get tricky. The front fender and springer fork will need to really be thought out. One or the other will have to be modified. Most likely the fender. Also debating having this rack on the...

Definitely will let you know. Not sure on the cream or blue accents yet. I think I’ll need your eye to determine that one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks everyone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you sir. I appreciate that. Just a student of guys like Dr.T and TRM. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Excellent job on that one. Here are a few more updates that transpired over lunch break. Before it gets to hot out I’m really trying to get this paint done (what little there is to do). I had this tank on this frame at one point and it made since for it to go back on. It just needs a patina...

Last years attempt.
