Thread of the Day: '67 T100 Hardtail Build

Can't stand the stuff myself, only on a race bike for a genuine purpose besides covering up shitty work.

I am building this to the best of my abilities and will not except a big f-up right on my headpipe that I spent way too much time fabbing. They agreed to rechrome it, it just sets me back some fab and driving time.

The rest of the chrome came out really nice so I won't slam the chrome shop, shit happens...

Painted Frame:

I've probably spent more $ on sandpaper, buffing wheels and compound than what it would take to send it out, fuck it, at least I have the aluminum poisoning experience to show for it:

Pinky and Jackson:

PPG NCP 280 again:

great work, love it! the frame looks great with this color, and the chrome parts.. fuck.

hope we can see some new pics from your project!

Ready for assembly:



Cases mated:



Barrel on:

Damn nice.. Keep up the good work.

Paint is done:

Wheels are laced:

Needs a few more hours of polishing:

I really wish I had a kid so I could teach him/her how to polish:



Engine in the frame, I guess this is some sort of milestone, won't be long now:

Looking sweet. I like the frame color. And you can teach me to polish...

You just got a third...

Man not sure how I missed this! You have done a stellar job on the bike.Anxious to see the finished product.

I have also been watching since you 1st posted- I just don't say much. Really like your build- I'm also working on a '67 t100. Started out as a c, but I've had to steal so many parts from another motor I had that I think it's closer to a daytona now. I've been working on mine for over a year, and haven't even started a build thread, yet, so can't blame you for not posting more often. I keep saying I'm going to get my son to help me start a thread, but I'd rather be in the garage or lurking on here! I'm hoping to get mine on the road, still, before the snow flies; but these projects can be more than a little unpredictable! Keep up the good work!
