Probably get at least a dozen more.

I doubt we will beat the 50+ we got last year, the new rules have cut a few people's style out, but as long as the quality is still there I am happy!
47 hours to the start!

Hey Carl, btw, congrats on the raffle bike win!

awesome I will begin my post on the first
I am still gathering parts
may i suggest mooving this thread in the MBBO5 section ? 
Build thread name change can be made more than once ? i have a sweet plan but can't find a name for it and it may change as the build progressOk, this is it, these are the rules that we will be using for MBBO#05, if you don't like them feel free to not enter.
2 Classes:
Class 1: Will now be only for rebuilt and refurbished original muscle bikes or accurate reproductions of an original muscle bike in their original sizes. Period correct accessories are encouraged.
Class 2: Anything goes aside from:
1: Must have a banana/polo/spoon/loaf/you get the idea, seat.
2: Must have ape hangers/steering wheel/rams horn/butterfly/you get the idea, bars.
3: Tire size rake is encouraged.
The rules:
Rule 1- Entire build must be done between 1st September 2016 and 1st December 2016, this is now a 3 month build-off as per the main build-off, you are expected to start a build thread and post progress pics as you go, please don't just build away and expect to jump in at the last second with a finished bike, you can enter at any time before the deadline, but the build must not be finished when you enter.
For the exact Start time that will be used please click here:https://countingdownto.com/countdown/rrb-mbbo-05-start-countdown-clock
For the exact Finish time that will be used please click here:https://countingdownto.com/countdown/rrb-mbbo-05-finish-time-countdown-clock
Rule 2- If your builds rideability is questionable please provide a riding picture or video, just to quell that question from those that like to cause trouble.
Rule 3- Please add "Class 1" or "Class 2" at the start of your build thread title to show which class your build is in.
Rule 4- Multiple entries from one builder are allowed, but they must have their own build threads and be entered for voting separately with a single bike voting picture.
Guidelines:
Please don't argue any more over the rules, there has been too much already.
Please don't start questioning whether someone's build is a "Muscle Bike", if it meets the rules, it is fine.
Please keep comments light-hearted and positive, this is a fun build-off, if you start causing trouble you might just get removed...
Have fun builders!
Luke.
Done! I didn't realise it was up yet!may i suggest mooving this thread in the MBBO5 section ?
Changes of name are fine.
Luke.
65 days to the deadline!

This is the first mbbo I've been around for, I'm really digging the builds. So does the frame have to be period correct for class 2 or can it just be whatever you have around? Was just talking with the old man about turning my la jolla into a muscle bike.

Class 2 you can use or build any frame, you just gotta have apes, banana seat, and maybe some tire rake.

Well, if I can convince the fiances old man to part with it, I might be acquiring a 68 sting ray for next year class 1. It's awesome since I discovered this thread old bikes have been popping up all around me.Yep, what Falstaff said!
