(MBBO Class 1) **DERELICT DILL** Mini-Crash's entry ((DONE))

[CRASH]

It's funny that this build is meant to help Mini-Crash stretch his comfort level and he flips the tables on Dad to force him out of his comfort zone.

I don't find that funny at all. :banghead:

I don't find that funny at all. :banghead:

From your point of view I'm sure you don't;
Sorry crash...
But for others its very funny.

No progress tonight. I had to do some modification work to the Renegade 5 to get it out of the way. Now I've got the cranks off it for use on the Dill.

[CRASH]

Work will resume tomorrow, but I need to decide what to enter for myself. I have a thread up in the discussion board, if you all would be so kind as to express your opinion.

 

[The Renaissance Man]

Father & son project... priceless.
Have fun.

 

[CRASH]

We did a little tonight. We tried out the new crank and had to do some modifications to get it to clear the chain guard. The nice thing about a rat rod is you can beat it, and all it does is knock off a little rust! So once the mods were fitted he did the final install (with some help of course)

Then we threw the sissy and seat on just to get a sense of them. Not sure if we'll go tall or short. If we go tall, we may have to make up a ratty pad. I wonder where I can get a burlap sack? Maybe with a pickle on it?

Looking good!

Luke.

 

[Jaxon]

Love the look of the Renegade. That could have been a great model for them. It looks original for sure

 

[Jamie825]

I bet all of Mini Crash's friends have bike envy can't wait to see all his ideas in the end .

That is awesome! This was last year's winner?

My kid has already said he wants me to get him a frame when he turns 10. He's 7 now.

Work later. For now...

 

[CRASH]

That is awesome! This was last year's winner?

Yes, I was humbled to have received as many votes as I did. It was my second build, but my first muscle bike (or second, because I did my bike at the same time) The links to the builds are in my sig.

Depending on what your son wants to do, I would buy him the whole bike and work with him on restoring it. Looks like you go for the Resto-mod thing, so finding a basket case shouldn't be too hard.

 

[Chad T]

Wow so much to take in on here...great stuff...congrats on the win. looks well deserved. he wants to have custom rims like I built for my '64 and am building for the fastback.

 

[CRASH]

The Renegade is custom, insofar as I used a drum brake freewheel hub for the rear.

Thats sweet!
Please get the boy some rubber gloves though. Don't you read the warning labels?
