Thank you so much guys, your good vibes are working for me! Made some progress today :thumbsup: New coat of bondo on the grill, with a couple more it's gonna be just as good as I want it: Finished the drive train and the rear end!!!: Bending that rod without heating it was the most...

It's all right Luke! Thanks for being there mate! Decided to stick with what I have, is going to be a lot of work, but is worthy. Took some progress pics: The result so far: Color matches the wheel: Re aligned front end, moved behind the grill: And finally, The Grill

I explained myself wrong,sorry, what I'd like to get is the frame of the grill:

Hi guys, it's been a long time since I last posted any progress, I apologize for that. Soon I'll post pics of painted wheels, dashboard, and rear end. Yesterday I relocated the front end behind the grill and now I like it better; thing I'm not convinced about is the grill. It's gonna take a lot...

I'm being lazy about fitting the brakes but who needs them right? Pics:

2nd. Pic looks vintage coloured one. Amazing Bike is awesome.

Oh, sorry for the bad pic, I´ll pull the camera on this one as soon as I return from work. Finally I decided to go flat olive drab on the frame, had a can laying around and I decided, why not? It has a brand new seat, new aluminum pedals, new cranks, new grips... I need new brake pads and call...

Well, bike is almost ready!!! Teaser pic! Better Pics tomorrow!

Thumbs up, great bike there, those apes look killer! :thumbsup:

LOVE IT!!! I'd try to darken that wood with some used motor oil, I think it would be a better match for all that black :thumbsup:

What they said is just what I would do...

You nailed it! Love all her details, congrats man!

Spectacular bike! Uff, one of my favourite ever, top 5 for sure...

Wow love it! Very clean and classy

Araya: your bike is beautiful. love the rear brake placement and the bars. I'll see if I can get one like it for cheap. Colour combo is great too. Deorman: The other colour I considered was maroon, but I already have black in stock so... Bikejunkie: Rear dropouts... I have all next week...

I hear you brother, that's why I jumped on this one, bought it under 25 bucks. Can't wait to go pick it up!

Thanks for the reply Araya! The bike is local, made in the 80's by "Graziela", Mom an Dad bought me one of these when I was 7 or somthing (33 now :eek:) If it holds my current size I'll keep it for a while, if it doesn't I'll flip it. As most parts are there, my plan is just to give it a nice...

Nothing special, just the same model of bike I had when I was a kid. I need ideas for making it cool, colour schemes mostly, cause I´m planing to spend less than 25 bucks on this one I know I have pedals, grips and a seat somewhere in my parts pile, but I love to see what you guys think, so...

Well, keep us posted on the new thread, I want to see how this baby turns up
