Oh man...this is gonna be cool.

Makes me want to order some more shirts to sell. :mrgreen:

When I first thought of doing this bike... I picked up this... but it turned into my buildoff bike... I would love to find another to build the Auction Bike... This Auction Bike is going to be super clean...

Only mod to a frame like this would be the lowering and slight bending of lower bar.. Other than that it fits the bill... fork and all...

It needs a custom truss fork if possible.

Jeff Jones designed a nice one.

Hey... I dig the snot outa those forks!!!! If you can build one I would be more that happy to mount it on a frame....

I am going to try and pry a CWC frame from a friends hands... he has plenty stacked up but loves them so much it will be hard.... 8)

I can sandblast & powder coat any items that you need coated. Satin Black??? My oven is approx. 36"x36", so if it will fit I can do it! I believe a 26" frame will fit.

I've got a pair of 26" wheels off a Western Flyer, kind of rusty (ratty), but not rusted through, appear to be solid & could possibly be cleaned up some. Probably need to be trued. No missing spokes, but they are loose. Let me know if you are interested.

Sounds good to me.... I will take them apart... Powder hoops... put all new stainless spokes in them... awsome!!!

This is gonna be sweet! I would love to be closer to you guys so I could contribute with something...
I know this site is full of awesome Graphic Designers like herr_rudolf and Rat Rod, but If I can help with some of that it would be great :wink:

This would be the perfect bike to get a two speed kickback and a drum brake front hub.... hint hint... ok.. ok... One can dream can't they... but just in case your feeling wealthy today....

Double Nickle ... I think on that RRB plate all we need is a nice clean oval piece of steel... I would like to weld it to the truss rods to make permanent... then I will paint it white post welding... I have a machine to print and cut out vinyle letters to place on after completion.....

Just realized I have a solid plain sprocket (no cut-outs) with 40 teeth, will that do??? :?:

So all you need me to do is cut it out and send it to you.
