It started life as a 1950s 1960s huffy tandem
Have a little update I've been working most the weekend but when I've had some free time I've been working on the trike.
I got a few dress up parts on and some wiring done and horn mounted.
Here's a few pictures for everyone.
Wanted to bring some more wood threw out the bike so made this piece this one didn't come out how I wanted, had some problems so I made another one
Test fitting the new one with the 50s truck hood ornament
Here's the ammo box mounted in the back to hold the battery and fuses and switches for the lights and horn .
Still thinking about finding a small keg instead of the ammo box.
Still have some work to do but should be done soon

Yeah me and my brother are working on it together so that helps moves things along pretty fast. were trying to get it finished up before the 4th or at least as much as we can.
Still need to make the mount for the headlight and clean up the wiring and figure out what break lights were going to use. I made some up. But not sure if we like them or not
Also need to get some sheet metal to wrap the bed. The finish bolting down all the wood
Then the small details
And I'm probably forgetting something.
Keep on Truckin

Was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
In a Kenworth pullin' logs
Cab-over Pete with a reefer on
And a Jimmy haulin' hogs
We is headin' for bear on I-one-oh
'Bout a mile outta Shaky Town
I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck.
"And I'm about to put the hammer down."
[Chorus]
Cause we got a little convoy
Rockin' through the night.
Yeah, we got a little convoy,
Ain't she a beautiful sight?
Come on and join our convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way.
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
'Cross the U-S-A.
Cool hauler
Sorry couldn't help myself,saw this and reminded me of the song
