Does the vinegar work good for removing the zinc coating?

only time ive done it is when the bresk was unrelated to the modification it was not no itension of cheating anyone out of a $20 wrench

You have to break off what you ground down but you have to have the bigger half of the wrench

That is a very unique frame. It's in a class of it's own nothing like other bikes. It's the first one I've seen.

It's just a bike it'll be alright is probably what they thought. Looks like they would realize that a good paint job is the reason for bringing it to them and make it look best they possibly could. What did they have to say about it when you picked it up? Did they still charge you for this? I...

I'm far from being a expert but I don't see why it wouldn't work. You don't see body shops stripping cars down to bare metal every time they paint one. I Don't understand why everyone on here strips down to bare metal. But it is fairly easy to get a bike down to the metal with a few tools or...

It was good to watch something about a older vehicle that you can actually learn from

It would be neat if you could incorporate an old 3 speed lawn mower transmission. Some are not very big if you find the right ones. Just an idea. This is going to be a great build. I hope all your ideas come out great in solid form!

Thanks Georgeediii and Big Ape for asking them questions I was wandering the same things.

My grandmother had pork and sour kraut at a friends house yesterday. The big shiny tires look incredible careful shining the seat might end up slippery.

I brought it in to give it a good wipe down and cleaning and made the tires good n black. I wish I could've come up with a front white wall. It was to cold and didn't want to fire up the heater in the garage. I just wish I could have got done before dark and got some better pics.

Muscled Basket Case Well here it is. This has been one of the best experiences I've had. Everyone is so supportive and encouraging. This is my first bike I've had since I was a kid and the first I've ever built. Thank you to everyone for the kind words and good luck to all! See y'all in the...

Here is some more pics I got to get a good camera I cleaned the bike up good and blacked the tires and I think the other outside pics I took is a lot better.

This bike is awesome. It's like it is made to be flipped looks perfect with the big and little wheels. It's good to see this bike done watched it all the way and enjoyed it all! Good luck!

Looks good the forks and wheelie bar is perfect looks like it traveled straight from the 70s. GOOD JOB!!

Keep plucking away it's looking good

So many cool good looking bikes! It's gonna be hard voting. Every time I scroll further looking through the bikes I think oh yeah there's that one I really like it and then scroll further to see more and don't know what bike I like best . It's a good thing voting will last a few days!

It's gonna look good can't wait to see it done

Turned out great I bet it will get a lot of looks when warmer weather hits and the beach is busy. Does it ride well ? I bet you will use it a lot if you do frequent the beach a lot.

Yes!! I was hoping seeing all the encouragement would get you in gear. I find that once I get out and stare at the project the wheels start turning wether I want to or not. Just make sure to get out there. You can do it!!
