Re: Rust-DX- A true faux-tina build

Here are the pics from the maiden ride.

I hear this used to be a hopping place back in the day

The door says "No Swimming After 10" but there is no pool in sight... :|

How long has it been since gas cost 43.9¢?

Back when gas still contained lead, I guess.

Forced rust on the seat post and clamp.

Love this one end-to-end, top-to-bottom!

I just noticed the fact this vintage bike is running tires with a .com address on them! :lol:

Crazy juxtaposition, man....

Keep it for a while, it's just too cool to build and sell.

Cheers,

That turned out great Cameron! Those gas pumps are worth some bucks, you think they would miss them if we decided to clean up the area?? :lol: I think you should enter one of those pics in the calendar photo thingy!

the tires are too modern looking....need to lose the .com address and the modern looking white lettering.

I recently bought a Hoggy G tire from 3g bikes and it had red lettering, flames and the .com address on the sidewalls.

I removed all of the red lettering and the flames and now it looks A LOT better in my opinion.

What did you use to remove the lettering?

I am bringing it with me tomorrow so you can get a personal look at it.

Can't wait to see that Bad Boy!

to remove the lettering on my tire i used a dremel with a nylon brush attachement that they sell. the brush took the lettering right off.
I have removed white lettering from schwinn o.c.c. tires with laquer thinner and fine steel wool as well. the lettering on most tires is just a hot stamp decal of sorts.
