    Re: Reverse Clunker? good work so far I think the addition of the trim on that chain ring and the two tone paint really changed the look of it for the better simple lil things go a long way

    Re: ★★★ 2ND ANNUAL RRB AUCTION BIKE ★★★We have a frame now!! I agree the forks previously shown are not the same look as the concept design.

    ★★★ Go Away ★★★ 1957 AMF Roadmaster Flying Falcon

    I know we are not supposed to talk about the definition of RAT but WOW you have nailed it all right there. Using what you had, a new paint job made old looking for perfect patina look, not too over-bearing on anything, some custom fab work. I love it nice job.

    Miller Generator Headlamp Bulb Help

    Hey there, I have the same head light on my Hiawatha. At first I thought the bulbs were burnt out so I did a very LONG and intense search (auto parts stores, hardware stores, national chain battery stores and of course online) and to no avail could I find a 6v bulb. Then it hit me, maybe the...

    1947 Dayton

    Haven't had much progress on this for awhile. I have looked at it everyday sitting in the garage and have been dissapointed in my lack of ambition with it. So today I decided that if I didn't do anything with it at least I could let someone else do somethin to it. So I took the original rear hub...

    hello

    Its always a matter of time and money. If you have one then you probably don't have the other. Right now I have plenty of money for the build I am on but I don't have the time due to work.

    Half link chains

    Will they work with any sprocket? (Will they fit on a skip tooth sprocket more importantly) Is an 88 link half link chain the same length as a regular 88 link chain or is it half the length? Is there any other differences between regular chain vs halflink vs skiptooth?

    the trip home from the lbs.....

    I decided to ride my hiawatha to my lbs to pick up a shift chain for the dayton and on the way back I noticed a couple of things. 1) the road bike guys look at me like I am nuts 2) the spandex wearing road bike guys are jerks (passed a mom with 3 kids close by her and didn't say a word when...
