It wont need a kick stand, that's for sure!
But it might need a parking brake :wink:

That angle shows how massive it is :shock:

SICK!

That angle really shows off the tires and puts them in perspective with the wicked frame too.
Cue up some James Taylor "Steamroller Blues" and roll on down the road! :arrow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfzMLRzH2yw

Go ZZ Top! :mrgreen:

Got the rear end welded up, took some adjusting but got it all straight and level eventually, then mocked the seat up...

Had to shorten the top stay on one side by 3mm (1/8th) did the Uncle Stretch trick and got the weld ground down close with the grinder and finished with a file, worked out really nice!

Looked good till I sat on it, that pic is with it all the way down... Decided it needed to be lower... Out came the grinder to cut the tacks, a little re-welding and...

Seeing you on this beastie really gives a true sense of the stance and scale of this bad boy.

If you like ZZTop, here is one that will get your juices flowing...

I'm sure everyone on here will love it... if not the song, then just the video 8)
Not sure that clip clears the site rules Glen! :shock:
That being said, something very cool about Billy Gibbons in a suit driving a blown flathead powered '34 across a dirt lake...

Re: ☆★☆Ꭼsє LᎾ₡Ꮎ JᎾKᎬЯ!☆★☆ RRBO#8. REAR END & SEAT DONE!

Funny I have gotten old and now just look at the cars. :lol: :lol:
ZZTop use to play for free at a small park in Houston, because they weren't famous
enough to get paid.....life changed.
Luke your build is really turning out awesome. The added work with an out of the
box frame design has paid off. :wink:
