As they say -----
It's not over until the fat lady sings,

Is that a Tomos Automatic in the back? With custom front fender and a legshield, anad some other stuff?

As far as the axle goes...I believe it will hold if you run it from wheel to wheel with minimum 3 supporting spots (for example, run the axle through some sort of tube bracket, just figure out a way to make some sort of bearing/lubrication).

Today I painted some more bits.It has been so hot,I thought the frame would be dry for the gold to go on.At 10am i started painting and it shriveled,also the red was all sticky.You would think it would have baked on in this heat. I hung the frame in the shade,and continued.Those old bikes always had heavy paint jobs anyway.
The frame with the gold touches.

I went with the people's choice,gold rims-red spokes.
My choice was red rims-gold spokes.But this is a bout fun,and letting other builders help...

with the black pin stripes.

That red/gold really does have a great antique fire truck vibe!!

Looks good funk,hope you get it finished. I'm liking the the unfinished wood, fits better than painted.

I like the dart graphics you came up with.

 

[Fv2]

Agree with Kingfish, the darts are a nice touch. And the lights look good too.
