My son really liked the Cafe I built for myself, so it looks like I'm building another. I guess thats what Dads are for.
1976 R75 Frame (black Powder coat), 1975 R/75 Block, 1976 R60 Jugs, (he's a beginner so lets start off with a smaller bore). 1983 R80 snowflake wheels (black powdercoat). Started Polishing the aluminum parts. Got aways to go, but it's a good start.
Will post more when it progresses.

Now that has to be one of the coolest things I have ever heard of someone doing is building a bike for their son I wish my dad would have done that. Not to mention I nominate you for being the coolest dad ever award

Well..finally found some time to work on the bike, a little before and after pics..It's amazing what a little bead blasting and powdercoat can do for some old parts..

That sand tastes horrible!

I have no way to do it myself

My dad's shop pretty much uses them exclusively. My dry joke was totally missed.
