That 1959 kustom bike is awesome! Thats like 50 years ago they were doing this kind of stuff Wow! Amazing that you found those bolt on headers from 1965, they must be incredibly rare. I love it

This bike should be cool. I am glad you are building these up. Some of these parts are really cool. Especially the rear mag.

for the green "little swinger" there is a repop light set you can get on Amazon that looks just like that.

The Bob Brown from that bike rod & kustom article is a different guy. An would be about a hundred years old if he were still alive I betcha.

That orange bike with the long forks is going to look incredible, I think a kid from that time would have killed to have such a cool chopper.

Hi here is my 68 huffy I was going to use these forks for the iverson project but I think I willl try and get another set or make one.
peace,

[krate-mayhem]

Hi all and Thanks,did a quick mock-up of the 68,I need to make some forks

 

[krate-mayhem]

Hi all was getting the parts for the 62 kustom together

 

[Dorian]

That looks like one of those pre Stingray sissy bars, nice find! Gotta be rare now?

 

[user 135]

This series of builds is so fun to watch.

I built something next to the 1962. Mine didn't have the square sissy bar but I have one of those now that I should put on.
