Got back from the Rocky Mountain Street Rod Nationals today, and I managed to pick up a couple new projects at the swap meet, as if I needed em.
The new two-wheeled project is better off, but still awfully rusty. Wheels and tires need replacing. Has the factory kickstand which is wicked. Steering controls are bent, but just needs a little TLC to be back on the road.
The new hauler I picked up for the above mentioned is a little worse off. the floor has one spot completely rusted through, and part of the body is cracking. Rear suspension is gone. Needs a new rear axle and all new wheels and tires. First step after replacing the necessary junk, of course is lowering it.
Pics soon!
EDIT: By the way, since jlaudiocavalier whines too much, these will be the last details for a while. Yes, I am keeping the projects under wraps for a bit.

Update!
I started disassembling everything today. Need to send some parts to my welder for repairs. The chopper is in damn good shape and wont take long to get to paint. The hauler is worse off than I thought, will probably need to replace the whole floor with new sheet metal. Bummer. Will probably need new suspension all the way around too. Ebay to the rescue!
you fail. no pics. die in a fire. seriously, i want to see this new chopper toy of yours!

Mine involve Jessica Alba. But for real man post some damn pics. I always enjoyed your projects.

Eh...you spent the time replying, guess the joke's on you
Anyways, Ill have some pics this week. Its almost done.
Yep, wasted more time waiting for pics than I did posting though.
oops
It's oh so cheesey!
The guy made the thread cuz he was pumped at his find, and wanted to share his excitement. Has since been busy working on the new chopper. This thread had nothing to do with "omg im so cool i have a chopper" so i dont get your "big whoop, i have a chopper to" trying to make it into some insecure pissing contest. He also said he will get pics to please the people who are actually interested and were teasing him, before you came in, got all serious about it, and started acting like you are sooo cool because you have a chopper and can post pictures. congrats, take your cookie and STFU already. I actually hope he doesn't post pics... hell he can PM every normal, mature person here the pics just to piss you off, because you seem SOOO bent out of shape that he hasn't posted pics. Grow up, we seriously DON'T care if you think you are cool because "you have a chopper too" so I don't see why you are making such a big point of it, putz.
