Tires are on
 
Those parts look great!

I bought three old bikes to steal parts off of for the front fork, araya rims, high flange front hub, this nexus 8

and this big chrome sprocket and crank

(and the Chicago tag for my non-vintage TT Schwinn build)

But you got me second guessing myself.
That chrome fork, and those blue wheels and sprocket look fantasic on that old classic!

Gloss sprayed on with an air gun will shine forever and really protect it. We all get hung up on rattle cans, I do it too. But my painter friend has a bare metal Monark he cleared a couple years ago and it looks like day one. The shine of the clear is also deeper than anything I could do with a spraycan.

Chain is on. I’ve gone through and have broke a lot of chain breakers but this one works great!

It's cool, but only if you use it for home purpose. Been through a lot of breakers, and the ones made by Shimano work best for me.

Are you planning on using a blu seat :39:

True. Or buy 2k clear. It's a picture aerosol can but actual automotive clear. Wear a resp for sure !
