Title: Being too fussy?
Post by: Bettyswallocks on September 26, 2009, 01:13 PM

I cant be on my own on this one....

I'm putting a bike together that i want to look right and be an occasional rider

The frames been powdered but i think the powders too thick...  :-\

Last night i was washing some tyres in the kitchen sink... the mrs thinks i'm losing the plot...  :idiot2:

Theres chrome parts all over the kitchen covered in autosol

I'm now thinking this aint good enough and that aint good enough

Is this all normal when building an old bike or am i going round the bend?...  :crazy2:
