Schwinn Boardtracker

[IB57]

I just finished putting this bike together and brought it down to the billetproof car show in Ocala at Don Garlets for one of my friends to pinstripe for me.
I rattle canned the frame, tank, Fork and chainguard. It's a 1957 Schwinn frame, locking springer, handelbars and crank, the wheelset, tires and chainguard are Electra, I'm not sure if I really like the chainguard I might try to find something I like more.
The rear fender is one of the Evans fenders I just picked up from Yeshoney...Thanks
Let me know what you guys think
Thanks, Ian

[Boardtrack fan]

I think it looks great! I really like the color scheme. Maybe cut the rear fender off flush with the frame at the bottom and paint it to match the bike. Just my 2cents.

Thanks for the kind remarks, I really pretty happy with the way it turned out. Boardtrack fan I was going to cut the fender but I think it's such a cool fender I didn't want to change it's originality even though it is the front fender mounted on the back.
Thanks again guys, Ian

The fender and chaingaurd give it a great appearence. Kinda give mehe image of an old racebiker that had no corporate monies to by new parts or repaint the old ones. The bikes mixmatched in a very approriate way. I agree with Chuck!
Thanks! 8)
