*SOLD* 1983 Fat Chance 19.5" Frame/Fork/Bars For Sale $1000 O.B.O *SOLD*
**SOLD**
1983 Fat Chance serial # 83 59 (frame # 59 in 1983) size is approx 19.5" (please request measurements if curious), with the original box crown fork, the original bullmoose bars (with custom cable hanger by Rody of Groovy) all refurbished and repainted in fire engine red by Rody of Groovy Cycles. I have not yet built this up as a bike and am selling the Frame/Fork/Bars along with a Specialized alloy headset, a mint cond. SR LaPrade BMX seat post in Red (was NOS before I put it into the frame...pics of that are available) and a brand new set of the standard pressed in Bottom Bracket bearings all for $1000 (US$) or "Best Offer" (Plus Shipping-I will ship world-wide).
NOTE: There is 1 tiny "ding" on the top tube that was not repaired and just painted over by Rody, it is only cosmetic and not structurally unsound so he decided not to fill it in and leave it as is. It is hard to photograph but I will try to do so.
This bike came to me as a survivor/rider with a lot of patina, so I decided to restore it completely
(THIS IS WHAT IT ORIGINALLY LOOKED LIKE):
I had some rust holes repaired and then the whole thing was repainted with brand new but original Fat City decals and then clear coated, here are some images and links to the resto process from Rody's blog:
