Front platform is from scrap wood and some wire shelving cut to size; front rack is a mini thing that I've had hanging in my basement for years. Those gold-anodized bars are also a basement relic on the original stem.




I fabricated a wooden chainguard some years back and will try and fit it once I have the rear wheel built. I'm also thinking of recovering that saddle with some scrap leather. Need to get to the thrift store and look for a leather jacket or large purse.
You just gave me an idea for one of my giveaways...
