Makin some progress...

Still with snot running from my nose, I wanted to do something to this frame. Because of being sick and lack of I made some plans for what I want to do. I came across the 1923 Temple Anrazi. He broke the landspeed record at 108.41 mph with a 996 cc engine. Damn that's big for the 20's! And Claude Temple became the first man to do 100 miles in an hour on this...that's 100 mph FOR AN HOUR!!! Inspiring



I tooled around in the garage for a couple hours and made a springer seat. Welded on a support for the front mounting point and it looks professional, the only problem, the seat should swing open after taking off the bolts from the rear springs. This one does not... And I mounted the clip-ons and I like them. I think im going to strip the whole frame down to bare metal and leave it naked. Next step it to hand form a longer headlight to match my drawing. I have worked with fiberglass before and it is pretty easy, it just doesnt want to set in cold weather. Fuck Indiana winters.
