The Huffman, Final photos went a little pic crazy

As the announcer used to say on the old Batman TV series,
"Don't touch that dial!"
You have a great plan of pinstripe, then maybe clear coat over to keep that very Rat-isfying original patina! This one is definitely high on the Rat-ing scale!

Too bad you're 3000 miles from me....I'd LOVE to freshen up those stripes!

 

[LukeTheJoker]

That paint is coming back great!

Not a lot has happened with this build so far, just waiting on parts and slowly braking down the bike and deciding what direction to take the build.

I got my wheel set taken apart.

Went with the skip-tooth Morrow hub in the rear.

Nice old New Departure hub in the front.

I'm having problems updating my post, something about a internal server error so I actually have more to post it just won't let me.

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Nice hubs!

Luke.

 

[Scribble]

Super excited, all my parts have come in the mail. I also sent off my fenders to be reshaped at a local motorcycle shop.

I bought this Delta from A.S.BOLTNUT instead of trying to repair the rusted out one I have.

I went with the classic black GoodYear style tires that Duro makes.

Got these awesome coke bottle grips from here on the forum.

And these sweet hub shiners from ebay.

I also decided on which colors to use for the fender pin-striping.

Ivory for the strips

and robin egg blue for the fender darts.

Nice stuff, good paint plan!

Luke.

Wow just now saw the original paint. That looks great. Looks like some great goodies piling up too.

Haven't been getting updates on this one, just catching up. I like the direction this is going.

 

[OddJob]

Scribble, you have a well-laid plan for this rat rod! Again, I really like your original patina, and your accents will bring that old paint to life once again! Rat on!

 

[OneHorsePower]

Thats promessing ! i like your plan and parts .. good thing you did not try to fix the old light ... sometimes junk is really junk and to far gone subscibed!

It's really hard to beat these tires...especially for the money!!!

What a good looking bike. I'm amazed how nice that head badge is. Plus, you're going to love those new grips. Oh yeah, and good choice on those tires. I always liked that tread pattern.

Those are the colors of my kitchen!
