Hey guys, first post here. I have been checking this site out and wanting to build a retro/1950's themed cruiser on the cheap. I found a Huffy Good Vibrations bike from CL to start with. It appears to be a 1980 year. I am going to try and reuse as many of the parts as I can.
Here is the frame after removing the parts.
The frame has stripped of parts then cleaned, rattle canned using a primer first then a gloss black paint. Everything chrome needed a good cleaning. The crankset and wheels came out nicely.
I used the checkered tape to offset all the black. I am going to use primarily black, white and chrome parts for this build. The saddle, bars, grips, tires, fenders are on order.
My photo skills aren't the best, but here's where I am at so far.
