This one has more ornate buckles,
As the head badge I had could not be used on the bike I decided to add it to the bag
If any member would like something personal made just PM me.

It doesn't look that large to me. Looks like a 57cm or 23".Mustang wrote:

you could always put ape hangers on it if it's wrong. grow a mullet. take up smoking. have 5 kids. paint it with a 3" brush. lose a front tooth and spit a lot.

Wheres the pics of your beauty or are you holding off untill finished?
Cheers

Cloudy this morning so the true colour is washed out,
I was worried that the colour may have been too modern, but I love it, he painted the whole bike in ivory, then the Candy Apple over. He (Joe) had poetic licence to finish the frame as he saw fit.
Detail is sensational,
Started building today, although I'll be slow, have lots of commitments over the next two weeks, so hopefully my leg will be rideable by then.
Joe is a legend, took 3 hrs to pick it up
