Threw some pictures up on the other site so I thought I would here too. Forgive me if you've already seen them.

Making a little progress. Shocks are just there to hold things up. I'm thinking about some of the NOS Redwings on eBay.

I like that idea, but what about pitting? I really can't have them rechromed for less than they're getting for cheap knock-offs or those Redwings.

it wont fix the pitting..but may clean em up good enough for awhile to divert some funds elsewhere on the build.

Love that workbench - and clean working area! (And the bike of course!)
