Frame & forks powder coat teaser! Wet gloss black. This is a pic of a wheel I coated, it is what the auction bike frame & forks will be coated with. The picture really does not do it justice. It looks even better in person! Gonna look sweet! 8) :mrgreen:

I just got up and found the plate waiting for me in the mailbox. The picture doesn't do it justice. Awesome man!
garagegoon and myself have had trouble syncing our schedules up to get the bike into my hands but we are meeting up tomorrow.

Just an update... Turning over all parts to Cameron 2-moro... Tires are on order guys... If I could go there and get them myself I would... It would be much faster I am sure... I am a little discoraged by the speed... I called and she appologized and told me to expect them next week and my white wall slick in a month or so... 
...
Am trying to keep a positive mind... Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers guys... Will help as much as possible... Much love.. keep up hard work...

Ask and ye shall receive
I got the stuff from Dave today and snapped these pics when I got home. I need to go back through the last 24 pages to see if all of the parts still needed are spoken for. From the few minutes I spent with the bike I saw we were still missing the forks (Mike), Pedals (?), spokes (?), bars (?), tires (on the way), number plate (dubby nic). I am going to get what I have to Pick soon so he can get started with his powdery magic.

What do you normally charge to do a set of 4 wheels? They are 13" wheels and I'd like to leave the outer ring natural and black out the centers if possible.
Don't let me get my hands on that seat! You will never see it again, except on one of my bikes! :lol: :lol: It's gonna look awesome on the auction build! I've been saving my lunch money for a couple months now for bidding money. Can't wait to get my hands on those parts for the transformation.

Alright Rat Rodders-
We are still needing a few parts.
Vintage block pedals (1/2", no reflectors, prefer a set that has the nut on the block bolts so we can disassemble them),
Spokes (stainless, 14ga, I will get the lengths once I get the rims and front hub back from pick)
Goggles and helmet?
I am moving away from garagegoon's plan a little bit, we are going with a full gloss black and ivory color scheme on the bike rather than black and chrome. Sorry Dave.
