Finally my first Old school build... here she is. her name is Harriot
« on: July 09, 2006, 10:22 AM »
I always admired everyone else's builds, so a while back though it was time I got stuck in myself. I bought a Haro Sport 88 F&F off the bay for 60 bucks, and brought her home.

Obviously I wasn't leaving her yellow, so stripped off the clothing to find she was originally blue..


Enentually, I got her powdercoated, and dressed up in 1984 stickers. 
She was born again on May 15th 2006, weighing in at 28-30 lbs, and healthy. Both father and daughter are doing fine..

Cool. Mixing the old with the slightly newer. I need to earn more cash cos I'm getting really jealous of all these Haro builds....  :)

Thanks for the lovely comments.  The powdercoating was done in a little place between san Jose and San Francisco-  "Accurate: powdercoating. cost 100 dollars. Its my first experience with the stuff. I'd never heard of it until I discovered radbmx.  The bars are had all the black/silver stickers, but were in bad condition, so I dropped them down to chrome. I tried a pair of kneesavers, but I can't get used to them- they don't look right.  I didn't go crazy with genuine period perfect parts. The wife told me Ive plenty other things which i need to spend my cash on...errrm yes dear. ;). 

(she doesn't know about the top secret undercover project ongoing in the garage named "operation streetbeat" ;)
