Bone Yard Choppers

My 11 year old son was looking through my junk pile and asked why these other bikes dont ride.So I told him lets make them rideable and heres what we came up with.Im pretty impressed with his vision,he came up with some cool ideas.He took a old 26" Murray cruiser and threw on some 20x3" WCC tires,a crank from a excersize bike that looks like a 70's mag wheel,forks from a ten speed and the gear ratio makes it fast!Then he took a WCC frame added a OCC front end,100 spoke 20" wheels and made it ride.I love opening my sons mind showing him what he can make with a bunch of so called junk.We should have taken more pics during the build up but these are just mach ups that ride,if we completely build them Ill document the process.Tell us what ya think...

cool, it's good to get kids in on the building process. that way we can see what they like rather than being told what they should like.

Thanks for the kind words Fellas.I think these will turn into complete builds,When I got home from work he allready had colors picked out for both bikes and more Ideas.Im leaning towards the cruiser for the first build but im not going to make up his mind for him I will just encourage his creativity and see what he comes up with,Ill keep you posted... :mrgreen:
