Frankenbikes encouraged
1 bike per person,per class. So thats 2 bikea total per person,1 bike per class.
Build must be documented,especialy the paint process.
No tribute builds or factory spec bikes.

The point of this buildoff is to turn nothing into something. Mismatched parts,frankenbikes,etc are strongly encouraged. Get creative with the paint,and the build in general.

IM looking for BEATUP, maybe not useable for you but useable sections of frames for me.

RL20II - Good Twin top tube section, the rest can be garbage.
ELF Double cross - Good rear section, the rest can be garbage.
ELF Double Butted - Good Down Tube section, the rest can be garbage.
Auburn - Front and rear section needed, from seat area back, rest can be garbage. 
GT Performer with S tube, Late 80s Early 90s - Need the S tube section so smashed TT or rear triangle is fine.

I sanded and primed it today, but you can't see it just yet =]


If you find a F/S or trade ad from me, ignore it. If you send me a PM and I don't reply right away, I'm not ignoring you - just busy at the moment.

Do I owe you feedback? Please remind me via PM and I'll take care of it.
