    Great work. I usually don't like these bobber projects because they usually look half-baked. People just grab any old cruiser and start to chop things off and cover up nice high quality factory paint with some cheap flat black spray can crap. But this has a nice original look to it. I also like how the bike you started with was worn out and needed to be redone anyway. Way too many nice usable bikes get chopped up way too soon. Nice project.

    how'd you get the sanding scratches off the engine? I'm trying to make mine shine again lol

      @4am170 just have to keep at it with progressively finer sandpaper then Autosol polish. Loads of how-to videos on UA-cam. Good luck, just keep at it!

    Looks great. What kind of paint did you use to paint frame?

    • @peterthomas7203
      @peterthomas7203  Рік тому +1

      Sorry for the delay. I used VHT range of paints for the frame (and the engine) including a self etch primer, primer, topcoat and clear. It really needs baking to harden off properly which I couldn't do so it remained delicate for ages.

    What welder did you use to weld the caps on the frame?

    • @peterthomas7203

      Sorry for the delay, just a cheap flux core welder (sometimes called a gasless MIG)
      Cheers
