radio flyers custom ones any out there ?

[bikesntrikes]

I swear, wagons are like rabbits. They multiply quickly!

Picked up two more on Saturday. The bathtub wagon is from CL and the True Value is from an estate sale. The bathtub wagon is straight and has all of the hubcaps. If it wasn't for the missing handle and broken steering bracket, it would be perfect!

I'm thinking about starting a RatRodWagons website. :mrgreen:

Great stuff, not so sure how stable a lot of those flat-metal designs for the laying the frame low are, box tube frames would be better. Still, interesting stuff.

Finished finally,

OK, reviving this thread because I reworked my mud flap. It always sorta bothered me that the mudflap girls didn't have symmetry, but with only a pop-rivet gun for so many years I wasn't going to do anything about it because it would've looked like poop. Anyhoo, I bought a used Roper Whitney solid rivet squeezer recently and two new 3/16" set of dies, one for punching the holes and one for squeezing the rivets.

I used a dremel and carefully shaved the backside of the right rear mudfllap rivets and pulled the rivet heads off. The chromed metal is super thin and stretched a little around the punched holes when I tried to open them up so I deburred them a little also. I flipped the girl around and set it on the mudflap with clecos to hold it in place, new aluminum rivets with a 3/16" washer on the backside to distribute the clamping. Nice flat even squeezing of the rivet.

Much more better.
