Cool cherry bomb! I was a big fan of the Runaways in the late seventies and your project would make them girls proud. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Yes it is. The frame looks like it's fatter Rollfast cousins but the fenders are skinny. Project donor bicycle is a seventies Panasonic Tourist 3 speed with a coaster brake. Nice bicycle with low miles.

Yes, the twenty dollar sticker must go. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

The chain guard to keep original paint, but some other rust may be blended into the faded blue color. Short of like the old trucks on "Man the the High Castle" tv show. You know, a well worn work vehicle vs a vehicle worn out a long time ago. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

I bought this frame at a swap meet a couple of years back and wanted to make a fun cruiser 3 speed out of it.

The winter takes a toll on the mid west including flags and graves. It was great build and glad some get to live another day.

I use the comfy test. If the 2nd and 3rd time on saddle feels better then the odd 1st time sensation, you have a win-win. And ya it was a win-win.

The 1st ride around the block. Typical this too low and that too tight. But a good ride and ya I rode it all the way.

A trade off bicycle with my brother, a Klunker is born! The bike is a mix of old and new technology.

Finished on last day!

Result is a perfect faded look and yes easy touch up paint. Amazing how much nicer this paint is work with then the 70's mix. Dry in a day and durable.

The Rust and Columbia Yellow look did not work for me. I switched to mixture of rust-oleum gross Yellow and satin White.
