Oh my lordy, I want to make my frame like that.

Any tips for gettings in perfectly rusted like that? How long did it take? I want to get mine to be about as rusted as yours and then clear coat it.

Just use aircraft paint remover and when you have all the paint off wipe it down with salt water a few times. I wipe rust off when theres too much but it usually takes about a month or so.

At first look I couldn't see the forks at all but when I looked a bit closer the black forks just don't seem to go with the rust, but to each their own.
