Crusty Racer...low budget Board Tracker

[buckchocolate]

the Crusty Racer is done...I think...I pretty much stuck to my budget, I broke down and bought new tubes after about 10 flats from used vintage tubes and I found these killer antique Nickel/Brass oversized VaLve Stem Covers...kept it under $50...here's the before and after pics and a link to some of the build....THANKS for looking!

I really like this bike. There's no one detail I can point at -- the whole bike just works. It really looks like a bike someone stored in their barn from around 1942 until now, and you just pulled it out, wiped it down and voila! Nice work!

Amazing. One of the coolest bikes I have seen.

Great job on keeping the rat look on all the parts, it looks like it's been a racer for many yrs.

Nice bike! Nothing needs to be added or taken away, nothing looks out of place, not too much, not too little,
It's just right.
