Let's see your modified Manco Thunderbirds

[paul h]

now for the ugly one i picked up this week.I got it at a good price and it won't look this bad for long.At a 40 mile long yard sale i did see a nice Manco t-bird that i heard run for $150.Keep in mind the one i bought cost one third of the nice one i saw today.

Hey Paul. The Manco bikes have some crazy prices around here. I've seen some for $300 plus. Good deal you got there! A side trip to Cleburne County will definitely be in my plans. It sounds like Buckeye might come up too. Is the flea market at I20 and 431 still open? Later.

 

[paul h]

Zeeman,the flea market is still open as far as i know,but it's a little sad.

Someone needs to come up with a new custom one My Tbird will be up here when i get the parts to finish it lol. Cant find a cheap engine for the life of me

I tried to up:shrug:load a couple that i found online but they were too small to download?

 

[buckeye]

I found this. Looks like the tank was suppose to have that Tbird on the tank.
If someone knew how to blow it up, then that might work. It a Tbird.

Here is a graffic that i'd like to paint on my bike.

:shrug:
It's sort of native american hi-tech.

If we can all find a logo we agree upon ill gladly paint it on my bike, kinda like a Manco Tbird group.

[Valocalrep]

That would look sooooo much cooler than the plastic fork plate the bikes came with! :thumbsup:

 

[TomH]

That is a real nice Paul. I thought about being able to put different colors on the body and wings, lots of possibilities for that T-Bird.:thumbsup:

 

[buckeye]

Too bad we couldn't get that laser cut, kinda like the OldMiniBikes chain guardes.

 

[TomH]

Here is what I was thinking, could leave it as is, or brush in some color to suit the owner. At any rate a cool idea for T-Bird guys.

 

[Valocalrep]

I think we should all do the retro tribalish bird logo it would add that touch so when you see someone with it you know they know what they have and they are a fellow OldMiniBikes member
