Found Shelby Speedline/airflow guard or bars (condition doesnt matter much)

[tacochris]

Well…this is a long shot but i figured there are good folks out there to be found and a friend encouraged me to try:

I am assembling a wishbone/airflow straight-downtube bike that was originally in really bad, nearly unfixable shape. I have the fenders, rear carrier and most of that but i need to find a guard and/or bars. I say and/or because i cant afford to buy both at the same time.

Condition: can be bent, rusty, in need of welding or rough…im willing to do the work.
(I know TRM makes a guard and i know they have repop bars)

This bike is not to resell or flip…this is a bike im building to keep for life. Life is short right.

Yessir…if possible.
Im having to go with a repop tank just because financially a real tank is a tad unobtainable but im hoping to find as much original parts as possible so my soul doesnt hurt. Haha

Hopefully ya don’t mind me high jacking your thread a bit here. It’s cool seeing someone else putting another y frame back on two wheels! I just got mine rolling recently. I hope ya stay motivated cause it can take a bit to finally get all those parts.
