been a while since an update. still waiting on my friend to help me finish the banana seat. should be sometime this next week...i hope. been keeping busy with fresh finds.:)

"ok..i am going to keep this one simple!"

cool story. welcome and have fun:)

yes. working on it.

had to do a mock-up. still lots to do but i am happy with it so far:)

with the season there having, ill be scared to ride it:21: might get stuff thrown at me!

made some progress today in my garden of weeds. outdoor decals with a four year warranty. finished my rear wheel, no crazing or bubbling this time! and started working on my nanner seat. covering with white canvas first, then???

my first build off bike

front rim and tire are done. i got a bit overzealous on the back rim, got the paint and striping done, and put too much clear coat on at one time...crazed and bubbled:(. just gonna have to resand and do it again. probably gonna loose the dice and fabricate some "n" for the valves.

that ok. thats why i asked. thanks for the reply.

anyone know if this is a rare or valuable mongoose? its not mine but i might try to buy it.

it was about 63 here today, party cloudy. paint did dry fast. hopefully same tomorrow so i can get the other rim done, and apply some decals.

some progress today! painting the rims white, then i will apply a apple red pinstripe. tedious tape job..but better than taking out all the spokes:D pic of the grip combo i will use. white hunt-wilde with red tips. and a shot of the fenders. these came off a womans schwinn ten-speed.

i dont really follow the huskers much, but alot of people here in omaha do..so i have a better chance at resale.:happy:

no physical corn:rofl: but definitely some husker stuff.

after 2 days of solid rain (6" plus inches ) it was finally dry enough to paint. apple red for the frame. white for the forks, chainguard and chainring. got the wheelset and tires started also. hope to have the nanner seat done sometime this weekend.

i just wasn't feeling the "western fire" vibe. frame and parts/ class, will all stay the same. just changing the theme... stay tuned....................................

did some work on my sissy bar. the half inch sleeve fit nicely over both ends of the 2 pieces of bars, but that left the threads bare...and they are sharp! so i put some springs from a long skateboard on there. fit good. they don't do anything, but they look pretty cool:21:

wow! been almost a week since my last update. got a couple of things done. got my sissy bars where i want them, used galvanized extenders. still have to drill em. picked out some new seat material. and added an extention to my seat, i needed it to be back farther.:happy: this build has to be...

thx guys. ill see if I cant pick them up Monday. cant get there any sooner.
