Hi I keep revisiting this place I find it quite inspiring there are some very creative people on here!
Anyway I've been playing around with my own creation on and off for sometime. It all started when my son out grew his Chrysler Chopper, he loved it so much the original plan was to 'enlarge' it slightly. He kept growing so in the end its become a full size adult bike.
Still someway to go but its taking shape :)

Hi sorry for my delay in replying been a busy few days. Thank you all for showing an interest in my build, i wasn't sure how it would go down still a way to go but it's getting there. It's the little things that take the time :)

Diggin the curved tubes but you best throw a sprocket and chain on
to and check for interference.:blackeye:...Stevil
 
Hi Well spotted!.Yep it all clears.. just. I built it up and and a few test rides, the right hand rear dropout has a step to allow for chain clearance also the right hand seat stay is slightly wider from the centre line than the left.

Thanks Luke
I spent some time pondering over fancy drilled brackets etc. then decided keep it simple less is more and all that. The mounts are just some hollow tubes welded on with a captive nut for the mudgaurd securing bolts.
