Those tires look smart on those rims! I think you should name them.

I'm loving the new moniker! Rock n Robin it is
Those are some sexy tires!!
Pulled this one out of back stock. Wondering if there's something on here that I might want to use on this build;
Whawk! Hallelujah!

Is this bird getting a wing?
I see lots of cool parts on that bike.
Rolled back into corn country this afternoon:
Stop by and got the mail at the post office. And the grips for the Elgin had arrived.

“If da Hays Office would only let me… I'd give him 'da boid' all right”
was going to use the Springer Fork off of that Schwinn.
But, sticking with my original picture of what I wanted this build to be when I finish. & keeping the stock fork and truss rod.

I can’t wait to see this Bird take flight!
I had to dig out this axle Mount kickstand that was on the Elgin when I bought it.
Well we have a coat of flat black on truss Rod & brackets,
kickstand, backside of chain guard, and the underside and braces of the fenders.
Chain guard and rear fender had a few dings that I knocked out but didn't perfect; it's a Rat Rod build,, not a ...Restoration.
Also round of primer on fenders and chain guard.
Chain guard has a coat of white primer over the gray primer.
& the old bike plate on the rear fender was shot with a coat of flat black after gray primer. Then a coat of white primer misted over. And then a light coat of gloss yellow.
