GlenB standing tall, resto almost complete
« on: July 29, 2017, 08:22:27 PM »
  OK I think I’m about 98% done with the resto on my GB. There’s some small areas of rust to clean and I still need to get her some shoes to call her own. I borrowed these from a redhead for the pics. Thanks to @harris92  for finding some really nice replacement legs for her. It has a @zavod44  reproduction handle and a reproduction pan from @Bertl  and @Jeff . The triangle is original and cleaned up pretty good. Some of the axle lost chrome to rust but not too bad.

Fantastic. Did you just use a bar clamp for the top handle straightening?
