That‘s like me with the Grape Krate...was looking for an affordable Apple but there was nothing at the time...got the newpop then immediately got turned onto the old stuff so I could build my own. I see the same purist smugness regarding reissues in the guitar world.

Spraying clear coat this weekend. In the meantime I changed the seat & wheelie bars again & tested them out on the Grape. Decided to nix the tall back...easier to get on or ditch if need be. Seat is super comfy & the kick up makes it great for balancing. Crazy pop art colorizing to make it look...

First in with “Dude, that table is the bomb!” Years back I made these out of surplus shelving and some found aluminum. Assignment was a sculpture that produced light. They can project a whole room. My 3d design prof showed them in a showcase of student work at the Rhode Island School of Design...

Fastback got a bit closer to reality...it’s a roller & just needs a chain.

Free tires from a doner bike. Hubs are good and one of the OG tubes still holds air. Rode it. Rides well for who knows how many years idle. Wonky crank...will replace at some point. Already getting use so might call it done for now & paint may wait. Painting the rear half fading from blue to...

I like this one! With those serious tires it reminds me of a Honda Trail bike.

I guess the mud ray is orange!

You mean like this $60 Fairlady the same guy had? Got all 3 Schwinns for $160. Already on this one. New owner isn’t a fan of banana seats or apes...those went to my fastback. Rear triangle is pitted so planning to fade from blue to candy purple to black for the rear of the bike. Whitewalls...

Moar spahrkle! Resprayed it this morning. I had determined that the paint was too dark. It was the red metal specks base. It looked too plum. So I sprayed silver first then metal cast red. Even without clear it pops!

Looking great and I love the huge rear wheels! I ran across a drift trike seat that would work...maybe too dark a green. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SEAT-FOR-BUILDING-YOU-OWN-DRIFT-TRIKE-GREEN-601-TRIKE-BIKE-/202428597467?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292

Making no promises. Found these locally. Looked on a lark and bumped into a two for one deal. Ray clearly saw action, was once blue, another odd mesinger seat, has no serial that I can find, has a busted rear fender mount so going BMX instead of muscle. Fastback frame is a Sept ‘74...one of my...

New to me old stuff! Never thought I’d find a Mesinger M-300 in this red color...I had to. These were common on the Rollfast Skoot. Color is close enough...the other style mesinger seat I found is a gold red that clashes. Now, what to do about the bars and mounting?

Busy day. Mostly bare steel. Optimus Primus Frizzlefrymus. A couple magic cans later... Red metal cast over red metal specks. Put a fork in it for now...until I redo the fork!

Dude, Weddel Seals sound just like spacecraft transits of the mangetoshpere of Saturn or a function generator. And about smore talking heads with stunt guitar from Adrian Belew? Heads fans must seak out the Rome concert...Belew and Bernie Worrell. Don’t think we’d have had a Dre without...

Yeah, I took a year off from stripping and it’s just not the same game lol. I just figured out I can’t even get the old stuff. I know I tossed a can of the old stuff when I moved. This was supposed to be the easy part. It would have been sooo much better to just paint over the bike instead of...

Did they seriously nerf Aircraft paint remover? I distinctly recall my Mom using this stuff to remove 4 layers of paint & primer down to the bare metal on her old 912. I’ve used it in the past to remove every bit of paint on all kinds of stuff. Now it has taken two days, most of a can and...

All of Nonagon Infinity...really any King Gizzard... The Oh Sees...any way they spell it. All of Ween, The Mollusk, then Quebec... https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnWUOftOMqaRSojqYalO_3ByhqgpgVm3i Adrian Belew...

I remember you from Turbobricks! I was pisco on there...still playing bass I see! Any plans for the bikes to shoot flames? :rockout:
