What, did AMC drop the Flash-o-matic? :?

Worked on the Flash-o-matic tonight. Gave up on the Tuff Wheel idea. 24" in the back w/ a 3 speed hub and a 26" in the front. Need taller bars.

Nice start! That's an un-usual looking repair stand you've got there...

Thanks I done built the stand out of scrap metal I had laying around.

Really nice start. Maybe I'll get ideas for my next project. Cool. What year & state is the 4h 48 38 tag on the wall?

Why did you give up on the tuff wheel idea?

Wonder how much would cost me to send you some local plates to add on your collection? They would be very far from home, pretty unique...
PM me if interested...

Great build by the way, I know it´s gonna turn up great :wink:

They are old California plates.

I originally wanted to run a freewheel rear for the front so I could use a disc brake set up I have with a screw on disc adapter. The front forks are way to narrow and without machining some spacers and stepped bolts to move the forks out wider it would not work.
