My Kind of Spaceliner...Max Patina

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

So this thing is definitely a Rat Rod! It looks like someone in the 70's or 80's adding a bunch of stuff to it. Handbrakes,mountain bike tires, polo seat...etc

All in all, I think it's a cool bike. I've owned 3 Spaceliners in the past 4 months and this is by far my favorite. The other two were just to perfect.

Thinking about making this my build off bike.

I'm glad the seat has at least one tear or it wouldn't match the rest of the bike. Gary

Ding ding ding! We have a winner by t.r.o.(total rust over) before ever starting a round!
Sweet bike, still wanting a liner myself.

I put it in the for sale section. As much as I would like to build it, I really need the cash too.

Oh no worries! Usually Spaceliners aren't this crusty. The wax they coated the chrome with did a great job of preserving them. If I don't do it, Someone needs to build a rat out of this one.

Ya, took me approx. 6 hrs. on my Golden Flyer tank, getting the old browned and worn waxy coating off. But boy it was worth it, the tank is wonderful now.
