The Bootlegger

[Psycho Sammi]

Sorry! I'm So Fashionably Late To The Party. Dunno What Happened, The Liquor Showed Up Before The Parts. Still Waiting On A Few Parts. Hope They'll Show Up In Time To Finish The Build. My Build Is A Tribute To The Prohibition Era Bootleggers.

Welcome aboard my friend, good to see you in the Build Off again!
And, where did you find all that lushious green grass in Arizona??

Bootlegging, you say? RaT oN~!

Bootlegging. You have my attention.

Cool cocktail of parts you got there.
We have a Prohibition Museum/Tourist Speakeasy here in Savannah.

Good to be back. That lush green grass is my front yard.

Cool theme.

"My grandfather taught me all the secrets of the trade,
He taught me how to drink and sell the best of what I made
He taught me how to utilize the guns and ammuntion
And he taught me how to deal with those who envied my position"

I like it already... Should be a fun build.

You can do a lot of ideas with that theme.

So the blue one could be your police bike....

The wheel Hoops for the build arrived last night so shiny and pretty it's a shame to mess them up

 

[Psycho Sammi]

I actually got a few minutes to do some mock-up

today

 

[OddJob]

Hey Psycho, which shoes are you going with on the big hoops in the final rendition?
I like the overall stance / balance of this so far.

 

[Psycho Sammi]

ground off the tabs that held the fairing on and got the bars in primer. Also ended to find some cool Coke bottle style grips that will fit one in bars

I just ordered some brown ones with cream walls and some brown Coke bottle style grips and seat to match

 

[Psycho Sammi]

some more parts came in today still waiting on a few more things and of course a bootlegger bike wouldn't be very bootleg without a liquor storage compartment coming soon

I built a Bar T.A.B. (Take Along Bar) for my fat bike a few years back. Fun project! It now resides in the BACK40 as a permanent fixture, as my "Handle - Bar"...

How does the glassware hold up over rocky, rooty terrain?

 

[Psycho Sammi]

used 3 Dremel cutting blades to make the motorcycle handlebars fit the stem it worked very nicely

How does the glassware hold up over rocky, rooty terrain?

That was the first thing we thought of when we decided to use mason jars we found plastic mason jars at Hobby Lobby we are also going to put leather straps over the crate. We are going to fill them all with moonshine and as long as the person that wins the bike is 21 years of age or older we will let them have the jars of shine

Those are actually plastic , Matti. Real nice ones, thick, solid.
