Frankenstein
What is the name/brand of paint on that bike? It looks like what is peeking out from under the rattlecan black on mine.

put engine on bench, work on frame? I'm always shifting back & forth. No matter how much I try, nothing shows up when it should, or.......I just got a set of bearings I ordered but instead of Timken like they advertised, i got some off shore thing. So, send them back and wait another week.......... 
It is 120 outside though so not the most pleasant working conditions. Wifey #1 & #2 use to let me do engines in the kitchen..........maybe that's why I'm on wifey #3  |
