Stray Cat...."The Cats Ready to Prowl"

[cherrydeuce]

A little video promo I made for my church service to get the buzz out to future bidders before the event last Saturday...

Here she was at the event and now resides with her new owner. The event and the church's missions project was a huge success! She brought 400 smack-a-roos!!!! We raised enough money to build a school in the Congo so the village children don't face 16 miles one way walking to school and being kidnapped by traffickers.
This project was a blast and made me want a bike that rides as smoothly as it did so I'm building me a new bike with similar drive-line, started arranging parts today from rusted parts and I should post some pics soon.

Congrats on a job well done!
Looking forward to the next one.

Change for the sake of change...

Here's the frame I'm playing with, thanks to Bike Bum for rescuing it from the curb and throwing it my way...
The one donor I have left, the metal guys around here are over achievers lately...

Never imagined 90's mountain bike cranks could be so cool but these are my inspiration so far...

I wanna get a Fez too!! I'm excited about this new build, the direction you showed me you were going with this is going to be very cool.

With a "Fez" come great responsibility. One simply doesn't choose the Fez, the Fez chooses you... enough nonsense...
yep, I'm still going the way I told you I was... lowrid'n is my thing. I mocked around a little but think it's looking a lil too OCC, think the 8" bent springer forks I have will give it more an old school look I want...

Fixing the back rusty-swiss forks with a fold-n-go beach lounger

I like my bikes a little on the trashy side.

 

[dracothered]

I think you need to stretch it out more in the back...

Normally I'd agree but I'm really think'n Old School Bobber on this one and the proportions are smaller.

Tearing away cuz, and your inspiring me to maybe throw a Briggs in the mix at some point... I want a bazooka like this pic here so bad I can taste it!

I have seen those beach lounger struts bend in half pretty easily, so be careful.

Thanks for mentioning Kingfish...This one was better than most material so I hung onto it for using it for projects... I get what you're saying, seen a few make "tourist tacos" on the beach over the years myself. The wall thickness was the same or a little thicker as the bikes I cut off.

This thrift store score was just shaped too cool to pass up...I think I have a plan for where it's going on the bobber.
