Recently had good luck using the flat table portion of my biggest vise a 9" piece of wooden broomstick handle[make sure the end cut is flat and square] and a rubber mallet to knock out the small dents and dings on the rack and tank of my Evans.I'm really happy with the results and now the most...

Had a little bit of time to at least get the JC Higgins beehive springer together.Hope to start making the move to "builds" on the forum soon.

This is a super longshot but check out ebay item#281353690727,this is a 1950's rollfast but I believe the tank is interchangable with the Evans,could be wrong.I'v noticed the price has dropped to $425 with a "make a best offer" offer:).A nice tank on these would probable fetch $300.What if you...

Yeah thats a bottle cage on there and it works great,I do that on a number of different bikes.This bike is from 1977 and has the 27" tires and is a quick roller.Got it off the local CR about a year ago and over the winter swapped out the parts.I'm keeping it for vacations for an easier tow than...

Sorry I digress I guess I was looking for you know who and the band's name got by me:blush:!Sharp Drezzed Men and they were awesome :thumbsup: on another note we forgot to tell you all that we got snowed on up north there and we were also able to lend some assistance to some three fellas who...

Ian,it one of the best times up north we've ever had and the only reason we ever found the Congamond lakes is stopping and chatting with some locals on the bike path and lucky for me they wanted a picture of one of my choppers last fall and we struck up a conversation on where to go in the...

More PICS: Watta terrific day,hope everyone can make it for next time wherever that will be.By the way the awesome band was called Sharp Drezzed Men:thumbsup: Grandmas still not home she texed and said she might be home tomorrow:whistle:!!

Whew watta day!!After the New Haven "Bust A Gut"got its gut busted we went to pick up Grandma,but she wasn't there??So me and Stevil went to Simsbury and were gonna run the trail up to Southwick to Crabby Joe's but first we stopped at Church but Grandma wasn't there either??Then we went to the...

Seriously Ian we really want you guys down here for some miles & beers it would be a good time:thumbsup:.I'm looking forward to seeing some of those beautiful bikes!! We we're not a liittle disappointed when everyone baled in the last couple days.Hope to see you guys soon!

Liking it!! really nice build:thumbsup:,gonna be building my Evans dragster style over the summer!

Built this little jem over the winter.Wanted a more comfy cruiser ride so I added the big schwinn saddle,cruiser bars and swapped out the brake levers.I found it on CL and fell in love with that camel back frame and with those 27" wheels she moves out pretty well for an ol girl,doesn't get much...

After confering with Stevil last nite on the tele we've decided to give this bike run the benny of a doubt and try to pull it off the cliff face.Noticed that there we're a few interested parties still wanting to go but have not given a definite answer.Here's your chance and with it being a nice...

:thumbsup:

Ahhh but I never did say shes getting this one:rolleyes:!! Really hope to get this together in a relatively short period of time but I do have the Torpedo to assemble first,luckily that has all pieces ready to go.I have hazy plans for an Evans "dragster" type of look with possible 2 speed kick...

Check out this wild child Evans on Ebay item #281350540501:13: WOW $1400 man o man I can hear someones wife yelling already:43:!!! !!!!I think it 's a 24",could be wrong

This is quite the bummer what am I gonna do with all these back fenders I was hopeing to make some $ with?? :rolleyes: I know one guy in New Haven,hmmm mabey I'll start there:39:!!

Thanks for the info,just got it totally out of the box last night,man o man that fella from Schwinn Twins packaged her with more cardboard and newspaper than a recycling plant,better safe than sorry though and he actually did a super job.Unfortunately the springer and fork are apart at this time...

Tires are 26x1.75 but it sure looks like there is plenty of room for 2.125"s between the frame rails which would be great as I'd ditch the former for the later in a heartbeat if I'm gonna custom rat it.Fenders would probably be swapped out and not sure at this point with what.As far as when I'm...

Gonna hotrod her out possibly along the lines of the Torpedo and run it,got a bunch of ideas but kinda hazy on whats final.Got the bike today and am happy with the purchase but as with all old stuff she needs a good go over.Worst parts on the bike are the square fenders and rack which have...

Thanks Bro Steve,should of had it together but just to much to do this time of the year,some rainy weekend soon though:thumbsup:and yes you'll get a chance to sonic boom it.Now I have this Evans Sonic Scout stareing at me like the wife wanting me to do something Oh Oh it never ends:headbang:!!!
