The Life Saver: 1971 AMF Renegade 3

[OddJob]

Need some ideas. If a Wald 20” kickstand is too long, and a Wald 16” kickstand is too short... what options do I have that would still look somewhat stock? The Wald option hasn’t failed me before. Of course AMF would have to have some weird length.

I don’t think I have the original anymore. It was a hot mess anyway.

Have @GuitarlCarl make you one of his patented Foot Stands. Custom fit to your AMF ers weird height.

I'm going to have to drop out. I won't have it done. Life is just too crazy right now to work on bikes.

Luke, could you move this thread to the Build forum? I'll finish this bike eventually. Maybe by March.

Rats. It's not a competition without you brother.

Carl.

Thanks. My life just isn't in the right place right now. It'll get done when things settle.

I finally finished this build. I polished every little bit and had a friend paint it. The red and green we just matched from a Lifesaver roll of candy. The orange was tricky because the seat is very "blood orange", so it really didn't pop against the red. So, we adjusted some of the shading so it was a close match to the seat, but still had enough contrast from the red to show the fade. In the sun it's really an extraordinary paint job.
Enjoy.

Cool, as always from a Crash build...
