    Vista Torino 500

    I finally got everything cleaned up and slapped back together. My buddy scanned the original sticker and recreated some vinyl replacements for the top tube decal.

    Vista Torino 500

    I broke it all down so I can shine it up. I’m leaving the kick stand on it. So far I haven’t found any info on removing it. So I’m leaving it on.

    Vista Torino 500

    A friend of mine dropped this off for a shine and lube. Looks pretty original. I’m just going to clean up a few things and slap some fresh grease in it. Sadly the top tube decal is kinda jinky.

    1974 Ross Compact Deluxe 3-speed MUSCLE BIKE

    Since my bike had had a cereal box license plate this one had to have one. I picked one up on eBay. Two weeks later it showed up and pretty bent up.

    A deluxe bike needs a snazzy rear deflector. I used the front deflector mount and a coaster brake brakes to make a bracket. Now I could use two reflectors on the back. I really like how it looks

    I really like how the seat looks but not where the sissy bar mounts. I did what I could. I redrilled the sissy bar holes. Now the sissy bar looks better. I didn’t like the holes so I made some covers from some buttons. I stitched the buttons in the fabric and hit them with some hot glue.

    1974 Ross Compact Deluxe 3-speed MUSCLE BIKE

    Most adult muscle bike just get a banana seat and bars. I wanted to enhance the whole bike. I always liked how department store bikes were flashy. Since the seat and grips had gold I felt this bike needed some gold accents. I painted the fender tips gold. I wanted to add a gold stripe to the...

I would have entered it into the build off BUT I’d already started it a few weeks before. The main inspiration was my 74 Ross. I didn’t want to just...
