Then stripped some junk of it, stripped some spraybomb of the forks.
And i liked what I saw!

This is what I made out of it...


Had the idea to enamel handpaint a name on it: The "Rambler"
put some cool 70's prism stickers on it
Also made my own 70's numberplate numbers (Sketched them from an old Tinker Juarez picture)
Waffle seat and new rat traps

presto!  :D

Vintage Clunker!
Or Cafe Racer...
