Here's the current assembly picture. The shifter is an unknown (maybe Ford) column shift arm.

Started wiring tonight. I bought the wrong size bullet connectors, so it will have to wait till tomorrow. I have a night time photo shoot planned for tomorrow and times running out.

Hats off, absolutely incredible job.

Dear god that's a lot of wires.

 

[The Renaissance Man]

Hats off, absolutely incredible job.

Thank you sir.

Dear god that's a lot of wires.

Yes and I hate soldering.

Got a lot done today, but it's late and I'm too tired to fool with pictures tonight. I'll post some updates tomorrow.

Thank you so much.

Got the tach mounted yesterday.
Here's a look at how the cable is routed through the tank...

Man, when you approach a build off you don't mess around!!

Man, when you approach a build off you don't mess around!!

The mantra throughout these build offs is typically something like 'Build the bike that you want, and that will be your winning prize'. That's what I've tried to do. Like most people here, I started thinking about what I wanted to build this past spring, and I have stayed determined to build it ever since the first day of May. I have pushed myself hard to see it through to the end because of my failed attempt last year. I was very happy with the bike that I finished with last year, but it was not what I had set out to build in the beginning and I didn't want that to happen again.

This has been very time consuming, but also very rewarding thanks to all of the encouraging words from all of the kind people that make up this unique community!

I'm scarred, I'll never look at girls bikes the same way again.

There are only a couple of minor things left to do before I can call it finished. Nothing is left that would effect taking my night time final photos which I was able to do Friday.

Thanks to Jason Collins at the Alabama International Dragway, I was allowed to take Drag King to the track for some incredible access for photos!

Here's a teaser ...

I'll trade you the Rusty Rebel for the Drag King??
Awesome build! Ver, VERY, cool!

 

[GuitarlCarl]

The real question is... What will it do a quarter mile in?

Let me talk it over with my wife first.

The real question is... What will it do a quarter mile in?

Carl.

Easily in the low 6's.

That's too cool!!
Can't wait to see the photos from the strip. Reminds me of the cool pics that @Funkme did a couple of years ago with her Gulf Racer at the race track.
Now you need to make a challenge for "The List" on "Street Outlaws"!!
