    New Boardtrack Build (mock up pics)

    Uncle Stretch, Thats what I did.I went to Ace Hardware found out the right size die and rethreaded it. I havent cut off the excess yet,I didnt look close but I imagine it is probably near the bottom of the spring.I still need to take it all apart and grease the bearings and hook up the three...

    New Boardtrack Build (mock up pics)

    The Fat Franks fit on the brown bike which started off as a mt. bike,barely but they fit.On this road frame there is no way a wide tire would go in there. Plus I already had the three speed wheel I wanted to use and it was 1 3/8" :wink:

    New Boardtrack Build (mock up pics)

    Thanks guys for the positive imput and comments The rear wheel is off of a girls three speed, 1 3/8" wheel, and the front is a old Styria brand,I think from Austria. Both have Schwalbe Delta Cruiser tan tires.

    New Boardtrack Build (mock up pics)

    I knew as soon as I put those bars on that they werent the right ones.It was basicly so I could take pic of semi complete bike. I am in the process of sorting through what I have in "the pile o parts".None that really are what I want for this build.Right now I have some semi stright bars that...

    New Boardtrack Build (mock up pics)

    Progress has been made on this build, but it seems to have fought me all the way. :x I got the arched 2nd bar brazed on last week. I cleaned up the welds and places where the cable stays were. The paint went on great.It is just about the shade I had in mind, I wanted it to look like old...

    Lead

    I think that anything prior to 1960 there is a risk of it being lead base paint,and anything before 1940 there is a high risk of it being lead paint w/ alot of lead in it. I sand and paint outside,but w/ no protection. I am comfortable w/ it, for the most part the dust is going to go straight to...

    The ol Roadmaster

    That looks good. Did you paint the springs on that fork? They look really nice. If you did were you able to get inside the coils throughly? I just painted my frame and fork today and painting the springs would be a nice accent that would match the wheels. :wink:

    Anyone into the paranormal?

    I used to listen to Art Bell and then George Norry overnight while I was at work. I found most of the stuff a little far out there.I do think that if you are open minded to such things then you are more apt to experience something paranormal,sightings and such. I personally doubt I will have...
