That cleaned up real nice! :)
Did ya ever figure out who manufactured it?

Turns out this tank was manufactured by Pacific. So it's a Pacific, but even Pacific disavows it's existence. OCC grudgingly admitted it was a real product of theirs, but only after I sent them photos. They had nothing to do with it, and I received a letter asking me to please remove the logos from it for some reason (they are stock decals) if I display pics of the bike on websites. Luckily they logos were fugly as all-get-out, so I complied.

I may never know the true story behind this bike, but I don't care much as it is plush and awesome. Heck I cut down a tree to grab a rusty pile of junk, and now I have a sweet path rider.
 
it was supposedly called a special edition occ bike that was only made for a year of two...i dont know why they dont want their stickers on it cause it looks a hell of a lot better than that other crap bike they sell. i bought one off of craigslist for my wife for $60.
