MoFaux – blast off!

Postby fordsnake on Fri Aug 03, 2012 9:18 pm

After completing my first build "Mofo" for RRBO7, I was amazed that I had some extra time left and challenged myself to build another bike…this Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon theme was one I didn’t see coming, thanks Kingfish for the inspiration…check out MOFO> http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=57039 I’m really satisfied with the end results of this “ratrocket” and that I was able to build it with all vintage bike parts.

I took a few pics this morning of MoFaux, unfortunately San Francisco had the usual grey fog hanging over it. If the sun decides to shine on SF I’ll try and take some photos with better light. But I really like the silver hue of the photos.

Love the steam punk goes to space thing. Wow, I'm embarrassed that I only finished one out of two bikes now.
