Pashusa2000, The best thing to do is to take a pad and paper and just take about an hour on a lazy sunday afternoon daydreaming about what you want this bike...
Thanks for the tips. Since my first post I have been talking to a co-worker(we both work at a machine/weld shop) about lining up the stripping and painting of ...
Sweet, Bead balster at your beckon call. Machine shop to fabricate parts you might need. Good deal. Hey don't let your son slip away so easy maybe you could...
Enrique, I don't think we've had the pleasure of meeting you yet, and that's some really good info you've provided there. Thanks much for your input. What do...
It sounds like you're definitely hooked up with the necessary facilities. I'm looking forward to seeing how the bikes progress, let us know how things go for...
Well that was kind of rude of me I guess. But who knows what the protocol is with this internet thing eh? My name is Enrique Paz, most people call me Henry. I...
Henry- That's great advice you gave. The first step is having some sort of vision, even if its just a sliver of an idea. I find myself in my garage just...
Henry, Nah, it wasn't rude at all. I just wanted to let you know that your info was really good. Sounds like you had a cool upbringing. I like Chevys and...
I have had this idea for a long time. Invert the fork on a 20" frame so the cranks are on the top, weld on a seat tube so that you ride about 4 or 5" up in the...
Al, That bike looks really interesting. The direct drive will definitely be cool, kind of like a soccer bike. Has anyone seen the movie Quicksilver? There is...
How has everyone been? Any news on our projects, such as Papa and Pashusa's bikes? John O, how's your racing? Matt, any more beach pix? The weather's getting...
We had a few days of pleasant weather up here a few days ago. The cruise was fun. There is an all concrete skate park by my place. I rode around it for awhile...
Well, I've got as far as taking the easy parts off the frame (fenders, handlebars, seat, etc...). The rest will have to wait 'til a rainy day. There is...
The painting should go ok, there's not too much surface area so you can give it a few tries. Any pointers from experienced frame painters here? John ...
My name is Bill Mc and I just found your group on Yahoo. Nice to be here. I'm almost 45, married, have to grown children and two little ones. I've loved and...
Bill, Glad to have you here, welcome to the group. I just moved to Arlington from Denton, so I'm a bit of a drive from Corinth now. Maybe we could find a...
I love my Dyno Diablo roadster. I belong to a local car club for my Pontiac Grand Prix and we co- sponsored an event with a local Harley-Davidson Dealership in...
I have an '01 Grand Prix GT I bought new in '00. I put 100k on it already from visiting my folks in NY from CT every week but I take very good care of it. I...
What a joke LOL I can't imagine what this guy was thinking to come up with such an odd design. And those prices!!! Tho, I do like the 144 spoke wheels. Just...
Those Grand Prix are nice. I like the older G-body Grand Prix, 78 to 87 with the RWD. Post some pix of the shows, if you can. Sounds like a really good time....
I finally finished both of my bikes. They were both built with the 50s era street rods in mind. Check out the pics in the Photos section. -BigPapa ps. I put...
Papa, Very nice bikes! Who made the frame for the Mountain Cruiser? Is that a multi-speed hub? I love the styling on all of them, especially the Drag Bar....
John, the frame on the mtn cruiser is an old aluminum Univega. Its a 7spd Nexus. The geometry is such, that it lends itself to a very comfortable riding...
Papa, Very nice buildup on the Mountain Cruiser. I did notice you had the old-school Brooks saddles on the bikes. They're supposed to be really comfortable...
Those Fizik saddles look really schweet; especially the "Animal Saddles". http://www.fizik.it/NewProducts_Animal.aspx ps. the Brooks are comfy once theyre...
I like your style man. I really like the Chopper bike. Hey what's the ride like on that? Nice framework who did it? No seams I can see. Good job. Enrique near...
