Hi and welcome to the world of rats!

NIce bikes! Love those choppers, they're awesome! The last one is allso cool! It would make an awesome rat rod! The bars are allready flipped, now re-paint it, get a bighead light and maybe a springer fork and you have one sweet(er) ride!

Once again WELCOME!

edit: saw that it was a three(?) speed, so you'll have to make a suicide shifter!

Welcome.
Those Grifters are nice.

thanks for the welcome, the intended ratrod is a 5 speed coaster hub nice idea about the shifter

yeah, and with that shifter it ain't hard! Just extend the lever and do something cool with that, then mount it to the toptube or seattube!

Isn't there a "chopperdome" in the UK? Maybe they have some? Otherwise i can reccomend http://www.beachcruiser.org/ They have a lot of stuff and the shipping is pretty cheap, I ordered my springer from them and the shipping from germany to sweden was cheaper than it would be if I ordered it from within sweden! Whitewalls your local bike dealer should be able to get for you if you ask them to order them! Happy building
