Wore out three sets of tires already!
Recently completed is my latest build.* A 1938 Roadmaster Supreme. I wanted to take time in this thread to thank Tom Clark and bring attention to his amazing talent. I have been around bikes, whizzers and cars for a long time. I also have a graphics background from working in the sign industry for years. What Tom brings to the table is a lost art. Seriously. His ability to pull fonts out of his head or stripe with the best, we are so lucky to have him. My collection would not be anything close to what it is without his contribution. During this build I got the idea from some original examples of Cleveland Welding bikes where the graphics weren't decals, but instead were hand painted on. Tom hand painted the tank graphics as well as striping the balance of the bike. Pictures say the rest. THANK YOU! @TWBikesnstripes

*"Build" meaning it was constructed from factory original parts meticulously collected and photo documented. Parts that originated in the same factory as an original paint version of the bike, but these parts came from bikes that were rode like I'm assuming most of us did when we were kids. We rode them hard and we enjoyed them. These parts were then scattered across the U.S. and now collected and reassembled. As with most of my "builds", nothing has been re-chromed and I paint the base coat and graphics. Tom's work hides my flaws. Handlebars and chain guard were taken down to bare metal, rust holes removed and brought back to polish. Paint was color matched from the inside of the tank and patterns taken from original versions of the bike.
 
Wow Jeff, that has to be the most beautiful bike ever, so far for me.
Love the color choice and everything about it, Awesome.
I noticed the brake arm is not attached over the awesome striping on the chain stays; careful if you ride it that way.;)
I love all of Tom's work and hope to get some more done soon too.

Good catch. Waiting for an NOS brake strap and a horn. Both should be here in the next couple days. Thanks!
 
Magnificent!
The local talent around here, never ceases to amaze me.
Jeff’s woodworking skills are a match to Toms graphic art skills.
We’ve also got quite a few metal fabrication guys around here, that are mind blowing.
The interesting trait that seems to be common amongst these guys, is that they are all some of the coolest/laidback guys you’d ever meet.
Hippie Mike is like that.
You could hang out with that guy, and never know, the level of imaginative talent that resides within his soul.
Keep up the great work guys!
Thank’s for providing the eye candy.
