Bob, we have to hook up when this thing is finished I want to set up a shoot! I have an event on the 24th down in San Diego where 6 of my pieces with be shown..

Is this quick enough for you Joe ? hahaha.
Since Scarlett is severly disabled the only way she could sit on the bike was if we went for a coaster style with no pedals. (they would hit her legs when i pushed her on it) and besides that the cranks would have been about 2" long.The final touches will be a tuck and rolled seat with chrome springs. Its a pearl white with lavender rose lace. I hope you all dig it !
BUILT BY SKOTY CHOPS KUSTOMS

By the way, That top frame tube wasnt bent, It was notched out several times (about 15 to 20 ) Then shaped and the notches welded closed. The amount of labor the guys at Skoty chops put into the steel work was amazing.
