Got this baby for 20$ and now it's time to do something with it, sorry about starting this project with out you guys I forgot to take pics, all I did was strip the pain off the frame, the owner before me know clue who that was, I bought this bike from an as is sale, but they did a repaint job on it, was not that bad but when some how house paint got on to it and ruined the repaint job, but now I have it and I'm going to do it right

You can see what the paint look like before I strip it



Here is the process of striping the paint

Chucks are like rat rods...they look cool new but killer when they get a little ratty!

Not to derail, but I've got a pair of Chucks that I graduated college in, got married in, and have taken to Nepal with me. At 8 years old, yes, they are ratty!

Good luck with the build...gotta love $20 bikes!

Sorry guys but I have run out of parts a money, and this frame is vary different so I cant fined a front wheel that will fit in the fork for the life of me, it's like a old motorcycle fork so I need a wheel that has a really short axle and it need's to be for free, and on top of that I used the last of my spending money on a set of fat tire fenders that don't fit on the frame, so I'm dropping out of the build off sorry

 

[Walker]

can you crimp the fenders to fit? or cut the axle down to fit the fork?

I would just grind out that to create a regular dropout slot like the other side. I can help you if needed.
