'48 Dually revised

[big AL]

This was last year's winter project. It's been slightly revised since then - hand made apes, burnt pipes going out the rear, and my little friend who rides along on the handle bars. I often refer to the Black Fluid as my "clean rat" and the trike as my "dirty rat". :lol:

Thats pretty sweet. I'm making a custom trike for my fioncee. I tryed talking her into a miniture model a wood pickkup bed, tail gate with the chain hooks... but she says she dosn't want anything on the back.

That is cool! I have a trike project that I haven't really started on yet, but I have a couple of ideas as to what to do with it.

Keeps getting better and better...
How about a head light? Maybe an old ford truck head light? :wink:

 

[big AL]

Thanks Gdcast,

Your right old head light for sure maybe ebay or just keep my I open for one.

Everything about that bike is hot. I hate ape hangers but those are different, i like them. You have the build thread? I know the bike looks finished,... I could see a different cargo box on it, something bigger? An old ice cream cooler, big metal food box, something industrial. The wagon looks a little too small and cute compared to the bike. Humble opinion. Friggin great build.

Hey I see what your saying, I did not take pic's during the build sorry. I had two ideas when making it a trike first a whisky barrel mounted sideways but could'nt fine one the right size, then aluminum barrel often used as gas tank on hodrods but way more then I wanted to spend, so truck bed was what I came up with and using the wagon looked like a old truck bed and it came with the wood sides again somthing you see on a old truck. Some day I will fined that perfect size barrel and change it.

hey man... your trike is awesome. what kind of frame is that? is it a true trike frame or did you use a conversion kit?

 

[big AL]

Thanks, The frame is your basic dyno roadster bought from USCHOPPERS.com Wheels, Trike Kit , tank, and fork. The tires are from Felt
