It does look a lot better than when he got it. It cleaned up nice.

All great bikes guys

Thanks for posting them. Crusty/ patina bikes are my most favorites because they just ooze with character. I also love original paint bikes and restos are cool but it seems like whenever I ride a crusty bike it seems to get the most attention. Let's keep this going, here's my 37 elgin. Rob.

One I'm working on now, may have to much paint left for this crew. Early 50's Firestone Super Cruiser.

Nice crusty riders guys! Had to take an updated pic of the Merc this morning. Wiped it down with Linseed oil recently. Still crusty, just not quite as dusty

Apparently crusty originals are my specialty.
