Hey guys, This is pretty much my first actual project bike in many years. It's still really basic.....but it's a start.
I picked up this West Coast Chopper bike off of Craigslist for $75...and was brand spankin' new when I got it. Right away I fell in love with how the bike rides.
I have mainly done work on the "tank".......I smoothed out the front welds.....and smothed out the front tank......then added the aluminum spun gas cap and threaded neck to the tank. I just finnished shooting a few coats of clear over the paint today...so I was anxious to take some pics.
I have future plans to powder coat the frame.....change the pedals.....add a speedometer and working lights also. I do have a couple vintage "Persons" seats that I'm going to try out on the bike hopefully tomorrow if time permitts.
So yeah, for now yeah, it's kinda just a plain ol' WCC bike.....but give me a bit of time and it'll change
Enjoy the pics....
Brian
