Thanks Pookie! From a family man who truly loves bikes as much as you do, compliments taken!

Got another shot of Hombre in abandoned building downtown that used to have a bunch of cool graffiti splashed everywhere. A good portion of the floor is done with 1" bath tile. Kinda strange. Even though the city tried to cover it up, you can still see some color popping through. It's a neat place for photos because the walls are there, but the roof is gone letting in some nice light. Even though it was cloudy, it turned out pretty good. Whatcha think?

Agreed, that pic says 'cover page'.

This is one bad "Hombre"...nicely done!

 

[Pedal_junky]

Another one of my favorites. It gives me hope to see another true Rat Rod Bike on a site that seems to have strayed from the term!

Mucho thanks!

Here is a close up shot of the Peterbilt toggle extension I attached to the tire bell lever. I drilled a hole in the original switch, removed the set screw from the toggle extension and secured it with a same size button head Allen screw. Originally was mounted on the bars, but when I put the apes on, had to relocate it to the top bar because the cable was so short. It worked out for the better I think. Kinda looks like a shifter.

I'm crushing on this bike hard. I keep looking at the rearend pic, it has a great appeal to me...
Great job, Rg

It hard to believe what you started with. Great transformation.

 

[kingfish254]

It's still hard to believe that was a girls bike!
Awesome work!

 

[cherrydeuce]

The fenders and seat give it a real tail dragger look. I like !

Just what I was thinking, I am an old school hot Rodder at heart and tend to like the bikes that have that look and this is definitely one of them that's successful in my opinion! Great job!

Thanks cherrydeuce, kingfish254, mplscoaster, and raggedjim LukeTheJoker, and every other single member here for all the positive mojo and friendly competition. All good clean fun. Making something from nothing, enjoying the camaraderie along the way. If I had a magic wand, I'd wave it right now, and put us all on a boardwalk somewhere cruising the bikes we built, talking b.s. and maybe enjoying a cold frosty pop. (Or two) Peace, and rock on good people.

Another bike that deserves to be in with the creativity here.

Style and practicality.

Never would have guessed when I started looking at pics for voting, but yours is the bike that got my number 1 vote!

Very cool, the ... change, the patina, those street sweeper fenders, great final photo, it is the whole package!

Great bike, really well done!

Luke.
