hey all,
ive been hanging around the forum for a while now while starting my build and i decided im far enough along to start a build thread...
i picked up my 78' special late 2010 and immediately tore into it.
heres how she was when i picked her up:
and 2 days later:
i knew i wanted to go with 21" wheels front and rear so i picked up some dirtbike wheels and started dreaming up hardtail ideas...
after doing some research and calling around a bit, i decided building my hardatil was the way to go, so i made a simple jig and went at it
after a few months of being RIDICULOUSLY busy with school, i got myself motivated again and finished up the hardtail last saturday!
so thats how she sits now. still a ton more work to do but finals are over in 2 days and ill FINALLY have some decent free time!
ill try and keep updating as i go. HOPEFULLY ill have her finished and running in 2 months or so (at least before school starts back up)
