Huffy/Westernflyer RatTrike

[ricksterr1221]

I picked up an old Huffy 24 inch trike at the fleamarket for dirt cheap, and the rear end was removable, so i took it off and put it on Dereks (Hes a sometime active member here) build bike frame from the last buildoff. Its a 20 inch western flyer frame. Its got a twisty grips sturmy archer 3speed shifter like off karfers build and a 3 speed rear hub that needs freeing up. The sprockets off of a huffy lightweight of some sort and hit has little tiger cranks. I need to change them its a pain in the ... to get going :lol: The forks are off of a previous junked schwinn hollywood. I need to find a way to get the rusted in seatpost out so i can properly mount my seat lol.. ANYWAYS HERE SHE IS. My latest creation.

(Lol)

I dont like how this is made right here..

The smaller frame looks great with the full size forks and trike rear end.

Makes me want to bust out my Huffy tricycle for some refreshening. I've got a few different frame I can attach to the basket portion. I also want to switch out to either 26", if they'll fit, or 24" wheels and add the appropriate fenders to the rear. Maybe fit them over the frame...???

Nice seat :lol: it looks to me like the frame does not match the basket/rear end :? Am I mistaken?
