My son's first project......

We bought my son his first bike the last month. Well after having it home for only 20 mins, my neighbor comes out side claiming it was her kid's bike. Come to find out there are 3 lil boys on my street alone with the same bike.... so we decided to fix that........

Started out with a red and blue bike with yellow rims, black seat and tires and ended up with a rat rod on training wheels.

Did a Metallic Lime green paint job w/ gold flake. yellow, white and lime green pin striping. ( My 1st time pin striping anything)
Painted the rims purple and bought white tires ( made by michelin ). Wrapped the seat in a zebra print, matched the grips and put a few caddy emblems on it


















He loves the bike, thou I think he liked fixing it more than he likes riding it, whats next he keeps asking. He even asked to do his power wheel. hmmmmmmmm....

Very cool!

Yikes, that is so totally gnarly, dude!
And a very nicely done job too.
Lucky young man there!

Would you consider adopting me as your son?
And I promise to clean up my room!

I dont know.
He looks pissed to me.
He's got that left hand all...I'm gonna bitch slap you,
and the right,
Looks like he's demanding 2 wheel drive instead of 4.
I'm not sure, maybe he's thinking he'll touchup the Cadirat with the leftover rattlecans, unless there's a toolbox around...

Great job making him light up like that.
Priorities.....check

Nice ride man! Seriously, very cool!
