What a great looking build so far!
The Redline flight cranks arrived today. Colin is relocating the chain guard tabs on the frame to accommodate the chainring and welding up a rear offset cog with 32t, and should be done with that this week.
I'm going to start shopping around to get this graphic put on bronze/gold mylar for the chainring.
My son completed his first class on using inkwell to create graphics for the laser cutter/engraver at Metric.CREATE:SPACE. My plan is to engrave the tank an image of Carol and his signature and fill it in with a gold leaf ink pen.
I'm planning make epoxy dots of the older Cobra Logo for the tank bolt covers, but with a "K". They are a little bigger than ones I've done in the past but I think I can pull it off.
I'm still a little torn about powdercoat -vs- paint for the frame. But I think a dark blue chrome powerdoat is probably where I'm going with this. I do wish I could preserve the dyno decal on the seat tube.
It is an inspiring piece of machinery...

SkUnKwOrKs! I am rooting for this build!
The Freaky Bunnies are getting hungry for an update!!!!!!
LOL,
Bike is getting powder coated. Three colors and clear... The owner is doing the shooting so I've got some delay due to vacations etc. It's absolutely fine if this cuts me out of the contest. It's all been for FUN from the start. Be back in a bit.
Sorry to see you drop out, but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do.
Have fun on the vacay.
