1959 Western Flyer Custom

by Bruce · September 7, 2012

Not a traditional color or treatment, but the style remains classic. Started with a crusty bike that badly needed restoration. Candy gold and pearl white fenders, hand pinstriped. Custom leather saddle with tool bag, grips, and headlight top it off.

 

The pile of parts that I started with.
