I'm with @OddJob on this, it looks good right where it's at. Too low sometimes looks a bit forced. Is the very bottom tube parallel with the ground? That's the line eyes will see. awesome whatever you do. This one will definitely win some votes.

Guitarl.
No its not really Parallel to the ground so if i drop the front end even a half inch it would be an improvement .
 
Alrighty some parts showed up today how ever 28* degree weather not much is getting done .

Ok so tonight I took that half inch out of the front end and it looks great ! But while it was apart I added some welds and grounded a bit smoother . The reason for this is the last time I sent a set of these out to chrome the platter had a hard time getting chrome to stick in this sharp grove he said it's not conducive with the fine gap there . After three tries it worked but I hope this fixes that issue .

I also fit the kickstand and tacked it in place

Shifter works well with the design! Can't remember, is that steel tubing or aluminum on the frame?
 
Not much to report I broke the bike down today and did some last minute details like drill one more cable hole and welded a nut in the frame for a cable stop it's off to powder coat and plate tomorrow.

Some parts showed up today i powder coated a chain wheel the same color as the bike but then I ran across this anodized one I think I like it much better . I also found some anodized blue chain and cable caps all imported from China lol

It's not always cup cakes and candy when re building problems arise , the powder coater applied to many coats of clear so some sanding and prep work is needed so parts fit once again
