@@ Build a bike around one part @@

[yeshoney]

When you find one part and you know you are gonna build something around it!

 

[dangratsdan]

Ive seen one of those before, it was not on a bike either, thats a little weird. What ever you build out of that should have a tail.

Lucky you didnt find a kick stand that you fell in love with, would make designing a bike a whole lot harder. :lol: :lol:

COOOL! :shock:

does it say "Delta" on the top of the lamps ??
i think columbias may have had the double light tank similar, but not for sure, whatever you do it will be cool

It reminds me of "ET phone home"......cool tank, looking forward to the build.

Has some great possibilities! A bugg-eyed rat bike will be very cool! :wink:

What you got there is a tank for a 1959 Western Flyer Golden Flyer. This was Western Auto's Anniversary Bike. Go to Dave's vintage Bikes and look at that one. http://www.nostalgic.net/bicycle444.htm This is a middle wieght bike black and gold beauty.

That is an interesting part. I could see building around something like that.

I'm kinda building a bike around this awesome mini stick shift from SuperStuff. I was leaning towards using a Front Freewheel system off a Ross till I got this thing, now I went out and found a Sturmey Archer 3-speed coaster hub for it...

Hey Rick: How are you planning to attach that MiniVac tank to the frame? Straps or drilling through the frame tubing to the tank?

 

[ParkRNDL]

I haven't exactly worked that out yet... and I got a REAL tank from Crassly, so we'll see where that goes...

I like the dustbuster, I say save the real tank for your vacuum cleaner.

Here is a pic of my Golden Flyer. Definately the coolest middleweght I own. If you decide not to use the tank I would buy it from you. I'm missing the lenses on my lights.
