Got me a choppa!

[outskirtscustoms]

Just got this in on a trade off of C-list. :mrgreen: Jessie James West coast chopper. Pretty good shape, little dusty, the forks are a little loose, and no kickstand but overall nice shape. Here's the C-list pic turned right side up. I'll try to get some better pics when it's not raining.

cool little bike. Those are much neater than the occ choppers.

Yeah I like it a lot better than the stingrays, still impossible to do a wheelie on and it is a bit heavy but not as bad. It'll probably get parted out for other projects but I don't know yet, Might just flip it or ride it...........As if I don't have enough already :roll:

Would be cool motorized but I'd have to throw a different seat on it, this thing has no cushion whatsoever.

Is that a repaint? If not I diddnt know they came in Red, Cool pick up.

nope just an unusual color. A buddy of mine has a green one and a black one, both very rare.

I have become addicted to these choppers..and rumor has it that West Coast Choppers is closing down and moving to Texas..so these West Coast bikes are going to become more collectible..I have 3 right now..one i bought missing stuff, so i made a true bobber out of it in the "oh so beautiful" satin black..and one that was in such bad shape that i am going to make it a stretch chopper ala' the Nirve Switchblade..THEN..i just found an Oh so complete one with all the bells and whistles..looks like it was ridden once and parked for me to buy !! If I were you I would restore it..and enjoy it..they are nice riding bikes..and I have seen several in red..real pretty bike in red !! Good score !!

thanks, got any pics of yours? The satin black sounds nice. I been thinking of putting the frame up and use some of the parts on other things. I know the tripple tree would look sweet on my boardtracker, the tank would look good on my bootlegger bike, wheels I could find something for. But on the other hand I might just ride it the way it is and look for other parts.

Them little choppers where sold here in canada to, ours where red and ive seen black ones also. I think sport check sold black and walmart had the red ones, I know another store had blue. I never rode one though. the big OOC choppers are cool but you have to add nicer parts, I like the other OOC chopper the one with disc brakes and awesome fork, thats a nice one

 

[Spokeshave]

They are alot fewer than the occ stingrays. That might be one to hang on to. I haven't seen one here on CL list,but I'm definately in the hunt. Nice score.

Well took her for a test ride and man this bike rides nice, I also found another trash find! A girls 6 speed 20" bike. Seat is gone, back wheel is bent, but it's got some parts. I'll try to get some pics tomarrow if I can dig it out.

 

[Spokeshave]

You're on a hot streak lately with the cool finds.

 

[outskirtscustoms]

You're on a hot steak lately with the cool finds.

Yeah I hope it lasts. :mrgreen:

I will try and charge up the batteries on the digital and take pics of my two versions...both ride so nice...i actually had a nicer one originally that i picked up at goodwill..sold that to a buddy who was going to put a gas engine on, he said it was too clean, so he found another and kept the first as a "rider"..he has since bought like 3 different chopper bikes..made an addict out of him now too...
