"Garage of Broken Dreams"...Part 1
Well..as most of you know I have tons of projects that are not far from being finished. Some may just need one piece of unobtanium or another. Or I just forgot about them and tossed them in a box. Either way..this year I need to complete many of them and will do it in a series. This bike was from last years build off. I just got the frame back before Christmas after it being re-chromed for the forth time. This is patterned after my first chrome Ruttman I owned. It was a basic bike with 4'' steel wheels...no fenders...no extra. The dispute over the originality of the bike was always a question since most had 5'' rims. But I like it....so it gets the 4'' wheels. On this one..I will not post all the pics I had on the build thread. I will keep it basic and minimal. Anyways..here it goes.

Now as it sits today....
