TLEJ Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 (edited) Well, it started all bent up, rusty, missing bolts... squeeking when pushed... Well... I decided to do a little work.. Did the best I could do to get the metal straight,.. Cleaned up the rust with chemicals, metal filled it down smooth, then hard sanded it smoother.. Dropped that primer on it, wet sanded it, dropped that crispy yellow base coat 3 times, wet sanded that, dropped that second 2 tone royal blue coat 3 times on that, clear coat wet sanded with 1200 grit and polished it. (cleaning with tack cloth and clay bar and all the goods inbetween coats..) Cleaned up tires.. and a few other things.. Then I added that extreme hardware: New Grips New Braking system Blue LED Underglow (charged by coil/magnet system.. So when the tires spin, the LED's come on.) New foot pad All new bolts and screws, wd40ed up. Sorry the pics are so small, I'll try to get some better ones later. This was just a little project I did with a friend because we were extremely bored over brake... Should we add more? Horn? Motor? Idk?

I wish you could do a train horn, but a little squeaker will work! Spinners!

TLEJ Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 I think a train horn would suit it well. Hahah maybe some tweeters on the steering column? There's a perfect mounting spot for some. Then maybe an Ipod holder.. (Jeez, this thing might be worth something after all..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram1989custom Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 I still think you need some spinners. Maybe a vroombox.
