Re: A RAT OF ANOTHER BREED

Very nice! Love the look of those narrow wheels and tires on that frame. What size wheels and tires are those ?

Those bars are perfect! Were they just arch bars to begin with?


Yes... Just wack 8 inches from wither side and... shabang... a set of stylish drag bars... I would have taken pictures as I went but it was a one day build... had to keep the creative juices flowin.. if i stopped to take pics I might have said forget it....
