i bought a few weeks ago it was in need of some love so i decided to have fun with it
reversed the rockers on the rat trap to give it some rake and it worked i added wheels off my old huffy that is no longer in existence and a few skulls i have a sickle that i will mount on the rear rack as soon as i find my drill not sure were i will g with this one

Awesome tank ornament!!! Sweet bike![emoji106] [emoji106]

Building..... Riding.....
thanks yeah im building as i ride it i am trying to figure out how i can mount a front fender but for now i am ok with it like that that tank ornament is skully it is a gearshift knob i modified to have a bolt in and is mounted in the slot where the headlight would go ive had skully for awhile hes lke a family member lol
 
tire choices are as follows the rear is a mountain bike street slick ( forget the brand but ti's a cheap tire) the front is a good year thunder foot bars are Schwinn trike bars i am still undecided about painting it i rather like the roughness of the paint even though someone painted it already i am also going to swap the rear fender for a better one i have eith a better reflector on it i have 2 spare fenders so i might cut up the least desirable plain one i have and make a custom street sweeper for it but no promises i doubt i will do much more the flipped rockers on the front springer take some getting used to but i love the look
 
had some old pic of the before from aprevious post i forgot i had here is the before pictures and the reflector fender i want to swap with the back on on the bike
