Re: New project : 72 Suburban
Finished up the AMF Roadmaster bicycle . Added a tank, original fender headlight (that actually works ) and a new set of white wall tires. Also built a rack to strap down the bike in the rear of the Suburban. Fits in there pretty nice

Re: New project : 72 Suburban
That's a lot of work to save a hatch but it's worth it! Looking good!

Re: New project : 72 Suburban
Thanks for the support guys. Started to weld up the hatch yesterday and do a little grinding, then the wheels fell off the wagon. I think one of the reed valves broke in the compressor and I'm just about out of argon for the mig lol
