Welcome! There's lots to learn here! Sweet bug too, I dig the luggage rack. This is coming from another younger guy who had a old vw squareback, and has a schwinn fetish ;)

That's the digital exam seat from belle isle! :thumbsup: Still a killer bike.

I've never had a bad experience with them. They are the only method of shipping I use anymore.

Had time to piddle around today, so I decided to get after this forking problem. There was two regular bolts, and two of the bolts that were original. I needed 4 of these. But couldn't find any, so after some thinking, I bought some tee nuts and grade 8 bolts. For those unfamiliar, these are...

This paint claims 650 degrees, but I would check into header/manifold paint. Those are typically good up to around 1500 or so.

I think this is the stuff hes talking about. It sprays right out of the can, but its rougher than a corn cob... I have however been really happy with the vht paints we stock, especially the rollbar/epoxy paint. I want to do something with these colors next.

In other news, I squirted some paint today... I also bought something else to rob my time spent on this build off. 1964 Honda Benly.

I'm from DaHood, Michigan

No one was in the house, the people moved out about a month ago. Scrappers broke in and hacked out all the piping, then boom. No one was hurt. Just houses and lots of broken glass all down the block. People heard the explosion up to 10 miles away.

Thanks! It's been a wild week. Natural gas blew up the house.

This is one sweet looking build... I always wanted to get ahold of one of these cupholder bikes, and fit a speedo into the tank, like a bluebird.

Thanks Jake!

I've been eating slow... Found this while cleaning up the frame a few days ago. So then I got it down completely to bare metal, and got to painting. Filler primer Same stamped dropout Also, got it in my head that these are the shoes im using. So I got them laced up. This last week...

This is a build I'm watching forsure. I was just like Tommy at one time. I must've beat Tommy to the dumpster on these though...

This is gonna be a cool ride... I spy the nova in the background as well. We have a green 72. My dad had a yellow one about 10 years ago.

The idea of the cal-trac system on the drag king space liner.

Thanks everyone! Got to start cleaning up on the frame a little today, and hopefully will have everything bare metal tomorrow. Paint comes next. :cool2:

As I promised myself, I wasn't buying anything for my bonine bike, but rather using whatever made it home with me that didn't sell at the Ann Arbor swap meet, hence the name "leftovers". Just like leftovers though, there's still some tasty parts to choose from, and sometimes taste better the...

Not to thread jack, but this looks awesome... wanna paint mine?

You going to belle isle tomorrow? I'll probably bring it with me if you want to get a look at it. It's also for sale. Lol
