This is my first complete bike project. It was blast to do. Thank you all for the ideas and encouragement. There are ideas from many of the members incorporated into this bike. I learned a heck of a lot from this build, and did many things for the first time. Thanks Steve for the forum, and thank all of you for making it a great place to hang out.
From a free attic find...
I present The Escaped Convict :
Some history. It seems the Convict was always jealous of cars. So he took to stealing them. His last haul included this 1929 Duesenberg Model J and the Auburn Boattail Speedster.
This angered authorities and they sentenced him to 40 years hard time.
Not wanting to end up here he planned his escape.
He spent a number of years at sea.
And some in Construction.
But alas it could not last forever.
So ends the adventure of the Escaped Convict. It was fun while it lasted.
