As horrible as that poor bike is, the good thing about having my name associated with crust and rust is that, on occasion, I end up with some cool bikes! Lol

Back in October, I was taking the scenic route home from helping my in-laws with some projects in Maine when I spotted the blue bike below at a yard sale and bought it. I've finally gotten a little time to work on it and look what it's turned into...

It's your project not mine, but why do you plan on polishing it before you clear coat, why don't you do one or the other instead of both. Just my 2 cents and most of the time CC won't adhere to a polished surface.
