Here's a trike that I built for my lil cousin a couple of months ago for his 2nd Bday. I didn't do a very good job documenting it, but here's what I've got. Everybody calls him Jack, hence the grips.

Thx fellas-on the grips I just glued the cards on the bars and then slid the clear tubing on it. I used chrome inserts from lowes on the ends of the bars.

Much thx guys! My late uncle had started restoring it back to original for his grandson (Jackson) and passed away before he finished it. It originally belonged to his own son when he was a kid. We couldn't find all of the pieces to put the forks back together, so i asked if i could have a little fun with it. They said yes, so I used the gooseneck from an old bmx bike and stitched it all together with a tiny bit of rake 8) and it all went downhill from there. I had a lot of fun with this one, and it meant a lot to be able to finish up what my uncle had started. This is the one that sparked my interest in doing bikes.

Me too man...I'd still be tryin' to ride the thing lol. I used one of the projectors out of a busted hl from a dodge magnum...one of the aftermarket Altezza looking ones. all of the inner structure is aluminum, so I just trimmed it out and glued it on with SEM panel adhesive

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Awesome, I like how you integrated the seat into the frame, that's slick. I might have to steal that grip idea.
