Hello from eastern NC 1st bike pics

[tiki v]

I just wanted to say hi to everyone on the forum. I live in eastern North Carolina and found your site a few weeks ago. I had purchased an old beach cruiser for 4 bucks about a month ago. Well after tearing it apart the only thing I'm left with is the crank. I started ordering parts ,so I guess it won't be a true rat rod bike. I've learned a lot about building a bike which will come in handy when I do actually build a rat rod bike. Some of the bikes I've seen on this site are amazing. They bring me back to an earlier time, growing up in Jersey in the 60's and 70's.

Parts is parts. New parts, old parts, right parts, wrong parts. :lol:

Started to paint some shiny parts black today. I did a little mock up. It may turn out okay. I'll post pics when finished.
