(MBBO#05 Class 2) J.C. Draggins..... Finished

[Fv2]

Finished up the seat pan.
Got the new chain ring and guard on.

Just need to finish up the forks, mainly the headlight mounts.

Figure out the handlebars, hopefully.

Finish the wheelie bar

Upholster the seat

Get wheel covers made

Then, I think it'll be ready for paint...

Love the guard!!! Looks like you u could slide it back to run flush w the frame stay.. defiantly gets one of my votes for well he rode it more that once so....

I mounted the guard where it is because it sits level, that's the only place I liked the way it looks.

This thing is incredibly cool. I suggest heavily flaked root beer brown W/gold leafing. That chain guard is begging for a '70's van style mural.

Holy crap Muttley, that's genius. I wasn't seeing that at all....

I might have to re-think the Type O Negative theme.

 

[pholTmonx]

So much yes!!!!

 

[Muttley]

Of course if go through with my suggestion your seat needs to match.............................

This is all kinds of awesome!!!

 

[pholTmonx]

100% agreed... But also every sort of wrong.. perfect balance

I think I'm gonna run with it, I really like the idea.

Love the chain guard!

That 'stepped' look of the chain guard matches the seat so well! And, I'm totally diggin' the '70s van theme...shag on the seat...but not too bulky. I still think the 'twiggy thin' look of this bike works in it's favor...hey...Twiggy...not a bad name for this long-legged beauty.
My guitar duo partner Greg and I used to do this tune back in college coffeehouse days...

I'm still thinking about the seat, not sure how I feel about covering it in something like leopard print and fun fur. I'll think on it a bit.

 

[OddJob]

Yeah, I still think a thin pad covered in a vinyl or pleather would be a good look. Color would have to depend on the frame paint...and accents...you know, bag matches the shoes.

I can come up with a good color combo, but I wear black shoes for a reason.
Black goes with anything.

Too bad I mailed out all that ostrich cream....

I'd defiantly look at David Mann style stuff to fit...

That was my thought before the design change, still is. Or maybe pleated.
Not sure what I'll be able to get locally.

Talk to ODDER, he's going to be doing a seat for me soon and may be able to help you out.

 

[Fv2]

I actually just got a coat from thrift that I might use, oddly enough it has that fake wool collar.
I'll see what I can find at other stores.

You're getting a really cool look going. Guard and chain ring are awesome!

Some metallic rattle cans will do the trick for you. I thought Drab Four was a play on drag fork. Love the shaggy sparkly van theme.
