5 dollar Shelby (before and after)

[Tommy Atoms]

As you may have seen before this is the bike I pulled from the unsold pile at the Ann Arbor bike show for 5 dollars. After some good ole elbow grease and alot of patience and a few new items, this one is now ridable again. this is my new pit bike for car shows and festivals and other gatherings because it fits well in my jeep. See more pics in the events section as I already took it to Billetproof Michigan this weekend.

That front wheel looks perfect...love this bike!

 

[Tommy Atoms]

Thanks guys! This is now my current favorite. I hope I dont ignore my other 5 bikes this summer.

This is really nice, Seeing all of these old 20" bikes being redone really makes me want to build one myself and I'm really not a big 20" fan.
If I can't ride'em I don't like to build'em. unless I'm selling them.

 

[Tommy Atoms]

Yeah I barely fit on it at 180lbs. I probably look like a circus bear on it. Thats why I made the laid back seat post with a large comfy seat. And the handlebars allow a lot of extra arm space and knee room too. No long rides on this one for sure.

That is one sweet ride bro! Very nice to see this one back on the streets!

“Nice twist in time on the photo!” Lov’n that reflection! 8) 8)

Wow! Nice job - you ended up with a really cool bike there!

 

[Tommy Atoms]

I was wondering if anybody caught the reflection. It was a real one too, it was the downtown area of Ypsilanti MI. called Depot Town, during the billetproof car show. It was like a mini show with a few cars but mostly motorcycles. We parked quite a ways away and rode in on our bikes...no trailer queens in my fleet. :lol:Heres one of the show inside the park.
