Hello all! Name's Chris, I'm the owner of Cburke.Industries, a small fabrication and metal art business. I picked up this bike for free and wanted to play around with it. I'm super into rat rods, but without the money to build a car, I thought a bike would be the next best thing lol.
The only thing I need to do is order the front, but other then that I'll be making everything.
I like taking a lot of pictures as I go, hope you don't mind!
When I picked her up!
First thing was to flip the girl bar around.
Then I started cutting her up!
Building the extension
I love spider webs, well in metal not real ones lol.
I cut the upper back off to flip it so I could maybe cut the seat bar to bring it down
I'll need to extend this as well
So that's all for now. I really need to order the front so I can see where the seat will sit before I weld that back piece back on. I want the back tire to sit just behind your back.
Oh and sorry for the crap cell pics, I post these to IG so I didn't break out the good camera! Maybe when it's all done!
Got my bars and grips. Should be able to order the front end this month.
