Lowrider bike - what part is this?
Been a while, but hopefully this walkthrough, as I strip down and rebuild one of my bikes helps you identify parts you may need. Also the tools required to work on the 8 Ball Lowriders!

Foo fighters Taylor Hawkins Tribute - Everlong
มุมมอง 151ปีที่แล้ว
Filmed live at Wembley Stadium London UK. Was a great tribute to Taylor, never seen so many grown men cry, when Dave Grohl cried - I was one of them! This video does no justice to being there, but hopefully gives some idea. Miss you Taylor - along with the rest of the world.
New Project just in!
มุมมอง 99ปีที่แล้ว
Been a while, but back. Two apologies to make - one the time since last video, but was involved in a car accident - two didnt realise the mic had damage, I've done the best with editing to compensate. But didnt know until after id recorded everything. New one has arrived for next video!!
Lets get this bike built!
มุมมอง 3K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Its been 12 months in the making, so time to get it done. All parts are in, zero space in the workshop (so plenty of videos/content to come), so we'll work around all the other stuff! Comment below if you can guess the artist and song this bike features in??
Beetle - Engine upgrade??
มุมมอง 1812 ปีที่แล้ว
Decided to have a look at the engine that used to be in the 56 oval, but had locked up (water down the carbs). Put a mix of stuff in the cylinders to free it up. Figured lets do a basic overhaul of it and get it ready to go back in - this episode - stripdown

Winter Project - The big reveal - but what is it?
มุมมอง 812 ปีที่แล้ว
New project has arrived for the winter, can you guess whats under the covers be fore they are removed? What do you think - got potential?
Time to upgrade the workshop!
มุมมอง 562 ปีที่แล้ว
Been a while, but been busy, first on the list was to get the floor sorted, so many parts dropped and lost, plus rolling around on dusty concrete is no fun. New project has arrived, so that'll be coming soon guys!!!
Lowrider - what wheels do I have??
มุมมอง 1.8K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Had a few viewers ask about different wheel sizes on Lowrider bikes, so put this short video together - hope it answers more questions than it raises! Happy to create some short videos if you have specific questions.
Big build - Part 2 - plus whats up next
มุมมอง 1932 ปีที่แล้ว
Been a while, so done a bit of work on the big build, but also been lining up the next project while waiting on the last few parts. Hope you enjoy. Please comment and let me know what you'd like to see me do on the channel more bike builds, lowrider instructional videos, car projects - after all, doing this for you guys! thanks for the continued support.
Lowrider bike - stripdown - what tools?
มุมมอง 7K2 ปีที่แล้ว
So finally started the big build tribute bike, thought I would go through how the bikes are put together and what tools you need to take one apart. Hope its useful and this is the start of the best build yet!
Lowrider Chopper - Big Build - Literally!
มุมมอง 1.1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Bit of something different, still 8 Ball Lowrider, but a bit rarer than the standard ones. Hope you enjoy and apologies to the fashion police for the footwear - Crocs and socks - I'm hanging my head in shame!
Next project - Teaser
มุมมอง 1813 ปีที่แล้ว
So got the work done on this frame, so can start building. You've not seen me work or build one of these yet, so will be a great little project. Hopefully you'll subscribe (if you have'nt already) to see the build!
Hedge Find Chopper - Finally Done!
มุมมอง 2.5K3 ปีที่แล้ว
With the weather warming up, finally managed to get some clear coat on the frame without it going weird. So now time to build it up and get it back to its owner! hopefully you enjoy the end result?

    OMG. Had one, myself, just like this, circa 1970, I believe. Don't remember the MK1 or MK2 designations, but it was black and orange, and the one in the video certainly looks like the exact same thing. I'm from the U.S., and remember it being something of a novelty, and not held in the same status as Schwinn. Traded it in on a 'ten-speed', when I got old enough (and long enough legs) to ride a 26" frame. Certainly had no idea that those Choppers would become 'collectable'. Sort of makes you wonder what else the parents decided to get rid of - G.I. Joes, Creepy Crawler makers, and sadly, many of the original 45 and LP records from the late sixties (even some imports) and the portable hi-fi we used to play them on. Ah well, still have the memories, and now we have the internet to re-live it. LOL.

    Hi mate that is a mk2 crossover and is quite a rare bike 🚲 I'm just referbing one now on my channel and do believe your friend should have let you go further with it as it looks like a rusty wreck. At least give the frame a tcut to bring out more colour before the clear coat and done a bit of work on the mudguards and breaks to make them a bit shiny. To me the whole thing is a pointless exercise as it pretty much looks the same as when you started but each to their own. Cheers 🍻

    • @TheRestorationShack
      @TheRestorationShack 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, I agree with you on what stage it should or could have gone, as it was not mine, I carried out the owners wishes. He has it on display and wanted it "rideable" of sorts, but wanted it preserved as he found it, as it was in his uncles hedge - after he had left it 30 - 40 years previous. It is more a sentimental piece than anything, so preserving it sort of as is, preserves the story too.

    I had a Cross 70 when I was a child it was slightly different the tyres are the correct. The gear shift was 3 speed with a shifter similar to the Riley Cooper. With a Tbar design. The seat was white with 2 or 3 red stripes, there was a matching backrest that could be adjusted up & down. The back support bar is original it was chrome.

    Start with the sprocket and crank... Then rear end,then seat and get the entire rear end completely done ✅ then start on the front end with the front tire,fender and all that already completely built onto the forks..... Then connect it to the frame and then add the handle bars with all the mirrors and fun stuff already on....... 3 steps to the finale assembly. Done 👍😊👍

    Bravo, utilissimo, proprio stamattina ho messo in moto la mia SLK versione Evo del 2002, e salito al posto di guida qualcosa mi toccava sulla testa, alzo lo sguardo e vedo il rivestimento distaccato su tutto il tettino, mi è preso il panico. Il lavoro è un po scomodo ma abbastanza semplice, io volevo provare ad incollarlo, perchè se ne prendo uno usato avrà gli stessi anni di quello da sostituire, e prima o poi ricapita la stessa cosa anche su quello. Lo hai incollato poi il tuo? Hai fatto un video?

    • @TheRestorationShack
      @TheRestorationShack ปีที่แล้ว

      Salve, ne ho acquistato uno usato in buone condizioni. Può essere incollato, ma la spugna sul rivestimento della testata di solito si sbriciola, quindi non si ottiene una buona finitura. dovresti togliere completamente la tavola e rivestirla di nuovo. molto più lavoro, ma potrebbe essere fatto. buona fortuna e felice che il video sia stato utile.
