    Hotrod Hobbyhorse 6/26 Not out of the race!

    Re: Hotrod Hobbyhorse 5/15 some assemblage why not place your foot pegs where the bb is? it is already a known and comfortable placement for the feet and would effectively fill the void just my .02

    FIRST CAR!!!

    Looks great! I love the lines of those old Falcons, and apparently so does my dad :lol: He has a 65 wagon straight six 3 on the tree, a 64 futura with a VERY healthy 302, and a 64 5 window currently with no running gear but will most likely end up being stuffed with something BIG and fast. Good...

    Another new guy--Schwinn "Heavy Duti"

    Congrats to my girlfriend.....

    Well its official.... My girlfriend graduated tonight with an Associates degree in Criminal Justice. Not only did she get her degree but she did it with a 3.94 GPA that means she got to wear the gold tassles and was Summa Cum Laude.

    How long before the Honeymoon is over?

    That test is backwards I agree with outskirts if she stays she is the one if she leaves then who do you find that will put up with the other stuff. 2.5 years with the "wife" as everyone calls her. Great girl who puts up with all my ocd moments. Congrats to GDCast

    Best old bike

    I was slightly torn between two- Shelby and Huffman :x The bike that got me to this site is a shelby built hiawatha but the one I am building now is a Dayton that looks just like my Hiawatha frame. I had to stick with what got me here and started my love for the Dayton/Huffmans :? :?

    Seat pan reconstruction?

    After you reblast it, spray it down with a product called THE MUST FOR RUST. It is made by KRUD KUTTER. Works great for rust prevention. What I usually do is spray it well and allow to dry. I do not rinse it with water like the directions say cuz it doesn't make sense to add water to something...

    Music and cruising..

    Electric cars- if those people want to go GREEN then they need to buy an old bike, (keeping it out of the landfill) and ride it. Instead of buying a car that was built in a factory polluting the ozone and using electricity from burning fossil fuels. Yeah Rat Rod Bikes- The original form of GREEN...

    Best for cleaning/degreasing a frame?

    It all depends on the paint. Some come off in a matter of minutes (15 or less) others take longer. I remember back in the day when my dad and I stripped the paint off the motor in his five window coupe. Took about 15 minutes and was bubbling up. Remember though that you need to work in a well...
