Kingfish254's PRE-RRB BO 7 Dream Board "CUZ I CAN"

Postby kingfish254 on Mon Mar 12, 2012 11:54 am

Since last year's Build Off I have picked up some cool frames and other crap to possibly use for builds. If you have followed either of my two builds, you know I do a lot of mock up to wrap my head around what to do next. To that end I am going to use this space to post photos of some of the stuff I have to work with so that I have one place to look at as I begin to think out what my Build Off 7 build will be.

One of my ideas is to do a sidecar build or have a trailer as part of my build.
If I do, then this will be the base for it.
I also have a pair of 26" wheel covers.

One of my other build ideas is a chopper trike.

This 70s WF trike back end would be part of it. With the kids 20" Nirve Clutch frame up front.

FRAMES
I am kinda leaning towards a non-canti frame.

May even make this Elgin into a 29er with Big Apples
Image

Have this 50s Huffman Custom Liner frame
Image

I love this beehive springer . 1941 Huffman Dayton mix.
Image

Manton and Smith frame
Image

78 Schwinn Spitfire 5 with Atom drum brake
Image

Sears Spaceliner (such a cool frame)
Image

I love to twin straight bars on my Emory Mojave so it could be used

Everyone needs a 54 Chevy hood ornament on their salt flats sidecar. Actually, this isn't the 54 Chevy ornament, but I do have one of those as well.

If I build the trike, I have these Harley Whitewalls. Actually, I guess, I could use them for a side car or trailer too.

If I build the trike, I was thinking of using this behind the seat

I don't know if it will be this build or not, but I plan to someday make a banana seat or rack out of wooden water skis.
By the way, I sold the hardware from the Cypress Garden skis for $46.
