Amazing work. I was just recently given one of these and hope to be able to spruce it up just as nice. I also saw the photos of the Specialized Hard Rock. I rescued one of those off the back of our local scrap guy's pickup. My co-workers thought I was crazy, but I see the same treasures lying beneath all the dirt as you I guess. Keep up the good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-644962941958841994.post-81734231767467107572013-01-16T18:04:02.782-08:002013-01-16T18:04:02.782-08:00Hi Emmett,

I also like the black and white against the green. I got a good start on your bike today Emmett, photos will be up tomorrow.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />JohnJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00038559533807088090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-644962941958841994.post-29112251279104705042013-01-15T20:09:46.594-08:002013-01-15T20:09:46.594-08:00Looks great John, I think the black accent pieces ...Looks great John, I think the black accent pieces give it a really nice look with the color. May I ask what kind of tires it has and what kind of saddle is that.<br />Emmett.<br />Emmetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691780965014088061noreply@blogger.com
