Coast to Coast Commander 100% Completed

[TheFlyingDingo]

Got this bike from crassly and decided i want to start working on it tonight...which doesnt surprise me

Thats the lot in which i got it from.

All of the chrome on the bike is cleaning up EXCELLENTLY and i have not been having any actual problems with it, other than getting the tank back on

Im not sure to what color im going to paint it but im open for ideas

Re: Coast to Coast Commander

Allright, i decided i dont want to do the metallic paint on this ride, its not fit for it. I like the look of the badged fenders and everything and it just wont fit right to me.

So i decided im going to do some kind of bonneville salt flats type bike
(kind of like electra's version...rockabilly boogy)

but with the same color scheme
