(MBBO 4 Class 1) In Violet --Finished

Unique color combo to say the least. What do you use for ceramic clear?

Duplicolor Gloss Clear, Engine Enamel.

It does yellow slightly over time. On yellow or metallic plum, that just adds depth .

Took the fork off and polished it, and the wheel up, removed a bit of surface rust.



Clear is sprayed on pedal and pan.

Oh yeah! That's one bright bike! REALLY loving the colors people are putting together on these bikes....wow!

 

[metalchewy]

I think I need to find a darker yellow fabric, that one I picked up, looked good till it was on the bike outside.


I wasn't sure whether I wanted the narrower width bars. I can change them later if the whim hits me. I am loving plums and banana's.


Gotta address the back wheel tomorrow and double down on the spokes.

Well you definitely won't lose it in a parking lot.

Luke.

Was shooting for the high contrast color, I was looking at bright yellow, orange or green. The orange didn't quite match Vitamin C, couldn't find the green tires for comparison...

Thanks OJ. I wanted it to Pop and catch the eye.

So far, everyone around here likes it. My son said, "I haven't ever seen another bike colored like that. It looks Great!" Getting a 21 year old's approval, rather than a 'Meh' with a shrug... I figured that I got this one right

We'll you definitely won't lose it in a parking lot.

Most Definitely! ! It will be visible from the far off distance. Hehehe

Once the wheel is comple tomorrow, there are a few details to work thru yet.

Been liking that 64 brain bicycle.

Thinking of making purple nerfs bars for this bike. Instead of fenders.

I am still figuring out what to do for the Stick shifter. That three speed coaster Sturmey Archer hub, (soon to be 56 hole) should have more than the little finger shifter...

Yeah, MC, that 20 something's comment should be treated like gold! I think my two boys (23 and 26) understand my passion; they just don't share it! My son's girlfriend is my biggest fan, she appreciates the artistic side of the builds.

Back in the early '90s my buddy Don painted his Lambo the same colors. This was it in Detroit going for the Ridler award. Bad picture but this was taken before digital.

 

[metalchewy]

THATS A LOT OF YELLOW!! So cool!!! Is that purple velour interior?

[Bike Bum]

It's purple suede. Even the floor was done in suede. This car was crazy fast too. The engine was replaced with a 1000hp 502 and ran a Detomaso Pantera transaxle.

 

[metalchewy]

Sounds like a blast.

[Fv2]

I'm thinking plain,I've never been a fan of animal print.

 

[kingfish254]

I like the tiger. It would help to see it on the seat first.

When I have time tonight will stretch mount the two new covers

[kingfish254]
