    Finished sanding and primer in the frame. So tonight I sprayed the first coats of paint on it and pretty happy with the product. There's some little things wrong on it but it doesn't gotta be perfect since the period for it is mid 40s during world war 2

  3. Excellent work here dude, keep it up. I was fortunate to meet Larry Watson when visiting Barris's shop in 1960. He was very cordial to a young buck of 16. I was treated so nicely by all these guys and treasure the memory.

    Sorry for the late post. Besides me saying it's going to something and bailing the last 3 years it actually made it's 2nd debut at the 20th pistons and paint! It felt really good getting it at there and seeing everyone looking at it and taking pictures of it

    It's a new project but I've been wanting to build this bike for 2 years. It's a April 20th of 1967 Schwinn stingray. Going straight early 60s lowrider on it and the colors for that one are 1962 Impala corona cream with gold Murano pearl

  11. its funny, i never painted my bikes, i always took the fenders off and stuck a card on the chain guard.

    from a fellow teen, that paint looks amazing, keep it up.

    Well, the first attempt didn't turn out so good put too much pressure on one paint and ended up making a dent and it also didn't help that the pipe bender was a little too small but the second attempt turned out better now all i need to do is buy another fork arm and start over
