Finally done a mock-up done this weekend couple hours Saturday and couple hours today before it got to hot today even with the widow a/c in my shed. I need to get it insulated at least the ceiling would help a lot. Tried out some different stuff but didn't like it and came down to a couple...

I like how the single brace continues the curve on the chain stays just in reverse.

Got some wire and finished up the welding. Got a little bit of body work done yesterday and today. It don't look like a lot of progress but took yesterday and a little while after work today. I also worked on a tank first I made a template out of cardboard marking the holes for the tabs...

Or some more of the acorn nuts like axle nuts.

If you are painting I would say #3 if not #1 matches the patina better.

Thanks it's a deviation from my original idea.

I think the peddle part is just to get the motor started.

Watching you move the dropouts up and down I was thinking that would be a good way to add some shocks or something to raise it up and down.

Awesome campsite OJ and the bike is looking great .

I haven't had much time to work on my build but did manage to get the old dropouts cut off and the new ones tacked on. Also started to tack stuff up before I ran out of wire in my welder. Forgot to take a pic of the dropouts tacked on . Don't have a lot of clearance but these tires are 2,325 I...

Congratulations looks awesome there

So today I wanted to get the gussets for the rear dropouts cut out so I broke out the grinder with a cut wheel. Traced it out on some cardboard and cut it out then transferred that to some metal then cut that out. Might as well give the fish a tail. Tried a different set of forks I think they...

Got the backside of the cover for the seat where it mounts to the top bar cut and formed to shape will do a little more when I get more time to get a few tacks to hold it. I don't like the dropouts that are on here so I cut some rear load off a kids bike they kinda look like a conehead Pac-Man...

Good idea to hang in on the wall if it's that bad.

I see one

Looks almost like the one I have that's better than nothing but not big enough for anything 😄

Thursday I got the seat tube and the stubs left from the rack trimmed down and smoothed out. Got seat base tacked on and got the backrest fitted still need to tack it on. Next I want to make some covers for where the seat will get welded to the top tube so that's what I worked on Saturday after...

Out on a ride with the grandkids again About half way felt a wobble in the crank and looked down and Must have forgotten to tighten the outer nut:rolleyes:

Yeah got some other stuff that I need to cut off from the rack too. Planning on putting some gussets in front of the dropouts also because of the bends I put there. Also I weigh 155lbs soaking wet.
