Almost Finished!




Here is an old Nishiki that I have spent the last couple of months restoring. I have spent alot of time on this bike. This is the first paint job I have done and I am pretty happy with the results. I definately learned alot and the nex bike I do will not have alot of the small mistakes that this one did. I will be selling this on ebay as soon as it is finished being put together.

The top picture shows some of the gold guilding that my wife did around the lugs. Hopefully I will get enough out of this bike to buy an oxy acetalyne setup so I can start brazing. Also keep watching the blog, we have an old motobecane that is getting turned into a full on townie bike with custom stainless steel racks and some sweet parts!
