Like “RadioFlyer”
Nice curved tubes!
Great starting point!
Yeah it's time for a classic Rat build... As I haven't done one yet!
I'm also searching thru my backlog of ideas for a theme...

Goodluck Carl,nice starting bike...Love them curves... Reminds me of my 39'Wards/Hawthorne...
First thing on the agenda is to straighten / repair the frame.
Way back whenever...
Someone rebrazed the joint behind the seat post crooked.
So it's into my homemade frame jig and cut and patch.
< This cat hasn't brazed in over 35 yrs....
How hard can it be? I did it as a sophomore in HS.

To put that into perspective, I was not born when you last brazed...< This cat hasn't brazed in over 35 yrs....

Good luck with the brazing.
Cool to see yet another prewar.

I just realised, you were going to do a rodeo tandem, I take it you changed you mind on that front?
Luke.
Luke.
Yep. I'm still building the Tandem Bucker, and it will go into the Builds section... but for BONINE I figured I need to do a classic Rat, since I have one...
Carl.
Still going thru names / themes, I thought maybe "Brazen Rod"
but after listening to some Klaatu,
I'm leaning towards "Little Neutrino", an Atom Punk build...
Obligatory garage door shot... rims and crank are just place keepers, not staying...
yeah it's tweaked...

Correct rear tire, vintage Allstate. Front tire is still too big...
I've also decided to go with the Atom Punk theme...
Carl.
Clean frame...xlnt lines...
That looks cool! You want an even smaller tire for the front? That is going to look very dragster! 
Luke.
Luke.
Early punch list...
1. Straighten frame
2. Skinny front tire
3. fab some handlebars
4. Rear suspension?
5. Vacuum tubes
Carl.
I like where this is headed!!!
