This old 46 shelby frame had been electroplated on the corners. I added some old components and some new and did a lot of work bringing all of the details together

The seat is 14oz leather that I recovered. Grips match the sear, as well as the little.loops I made to hold the homemade wheel stand.

All of this comes together to make a very smooth ride with gearing to take on anything around town.
