nice lookin' ride, Mike. I've always liked the way skyways look. Something about the clean lines of the frames and the graphics on the stickers.

I recently aquired a GJS that I'll have to post pictures of one of these days.

Thanks, i'm working on a 1979 PK Ripper right now. Making it just like the one I had as a kid. I'll post a pic soon.
Greg post a pic of that GJS. And did you finish your Hutch yet?

OK OK. I'll try to get some pictures of the GJS tomorrow. I haven't really begun to restore it yet, so it is as found. Complete with 1980s mud and grease. It is in great shape, though.

I didn't even start the Hutch project. Still just have the frame.

I am putting together one SWEEEEETTTT Kuwahara! Just minor pieces missing on this one. Do you happen to have a set of one piece cranks youd like to part with? Sugino or Takagi chrome, only mint condition wanted. And howabout some blue tires? Snakebellys, comp II, or maybe comp ST?

I'll take pics and post as soon as I can.

My dad has a Specialized Fatboy... Its old school we've had it since like 10 years ago. maybe a little less. but I will eventually take some pics of that. Its not way old school, but you dont see those ones around that much anymore. he spent like 6 months customizing it. Its pretty cool. :shock:
