Well after driving my cruiser home I took a really good look at the frame and came to the conclusion that it needs replaced. So I bought an almost rust free cruiser frame from cruiserparts.net. I went and picked up my frame on Friday and started running around picking up some tools and stuff on Saturday. Today was the first day I started doing work.
Today I pressure washed the frame and started wire brushing the paint and rust. I had to buy a new grinder because of course with my luck nobody around here stocks wire brushes for a 4.5in grinder. So I had to down grade to a 4in. I was going to get a 5in but nobody has them in stock. I also picked up one of those cheap sandblasters for $15 from Homedepot. I hope that will make the paint/rust removal go faster. But you know Home Depot they dont stock the sand, so whats the point of selling a sandblaster if you dont sell sand? Luckily I know a place that sells sand they just were closed after I bought the blaster.
My plan is also to do some upgrading as I go. I plan to do an SOA custom bumpers.
I will post some pictures after I get my silver star.
