Seats cost a good bit so I decided to vinyl paint this fairlady one
But it turned out pretty decent.
Still need a rear fender and to pick me out some pedals!
Traded off the some parts for this snowball and a bag of parts for it.How this benefits the J7 Special( the flashback ‘Rey’s new name) is that this buzz bike had the sprocket I’ve been looking for!
The final part of the puzzle! But now I have another bike to build…
Got a parts rig in this 77 fairlady for all sorts of hardware dirt cheap
Then on to fitting the ‘17 repop guard with the set of issues you’d expect …
So these two will have to become one
good enough other than an extra hole!
Realized I never updated this after clean up, I’m incredibly bad at remembering to circle back.
pulled it apart for cleanup and a little period correct upgrade
Good old 333 click-shift
Works like a dream even though it’s connected to a sturmey-archer hub.
Not sure if I’ll eventually put some...
Now for the fun part, getting the rear triangle useable.
Before. Wheel is perfectly spaced in the lower tubes, rubbing in the top tubes.
After, a whole lot better. Thank goodness for the park tool FFS-2 and some effort.
