Getting ready to paint...

kerosine taillamp and carbide headlamp DONE... (i'm eventualy going to get them pin striped)...

Matching 24" and 26" rims freshly powder coated, and a felt thick brick, and quick brick white walls...

Nice build! I can't wait to see this thing.

I found an older speedo on ebay. I also have a Stuart Warner speedo that I may consider selling for the right price.

If you can make that frame a reality.......boy, that'll be SWEET!

Do yourself a favor (if you haven't already). Find a roll of the large brown paper, I scored some at a local plant nursery, they have it available to lay in your trunk before putting dirt, etc.. in it. Find a donor bike and trace it to give you an idea of size, tubing angles, etc...

Take that to your welder, it will help serve as a template and help him visualize what your after.

Good luck!

Cheers,
