Reporting the rebuild of an old terrot frame. We don't have those nice american frames with all kind of fenders and mock-up tanks here in france, so i guess i have to cut, bend and weld...
Building the fork with some rear end and plain steel bars i've found in an old ruined farm.
At this point i've decided to bend those bars a little more and put a little spring in between.
Then came the real thing, frame slicing.
And put things a little lower.
Making a plate with 2 flat pieces of iron.
Weldin time
Madame Suzanne...
Some more numbers between the plainsteel bars.
Note the handbrake.
Rear job, bars are not welded to frame here, kind of moving sometimes when i ride on paved streets.
The rat.
