The only thing I have to throw in to the build-off is this lil Hiawatha Gambler (I am not positive that is what it actually is so please correct me if I am wrong) frame. That chain ring is also just something off a kids bike in the junk pile that is my garage...I will try to spruce this thing up into something respectable. No promises but will try.
 
This is my first attempt at a build off. I figure if you're building something from stuff a lot of people would sadly take to the scrap yard,then you're building something good.

This is my second time wading in the pool and that's my ceedo too, " don't mind me I'm just sitting in the corner polishing turds!"
 
Ok, progress tonight. Need a seat....just two options in the pile. Here.is the best option.

Pretty cool little seat don't you think?

Looks like you are having fun so far on your Kenny Rogers build.
 
After an unsatisfying start I have scrapped the project above and am now using the Hiawatha frame as the base for a flat track racing Bultaco themed bike. Put on some triple tree forks that didnt fit but think I put enough shims in to get.the job done
 
Handle bar positioning is critical. Originally I was thinking low bars would be cool until I tried it...
