Custom taillight housing and new tank

Fender tab and new tire

Last night after two weeks or re-arranging the garage I got back on the shovel. I squared the fender away, its rock solid! I also tossed on another tire and rim, since these will stay chrome we went with the clean rim and powder coating the other one for another build. Tonight will be the rear pipe mount and start the forward controls.

Pipes done

Time to make some noise

The pipes are coming together

Its a roller

Still got a ways to go, just getting it set up to take to an open house project show in NJ this weekend at 47 Industries. The bars are temporary just to move it around.

Gettin some more done

And so it begins

I cut off all the un needed tabs and mounts, filled in some holes, cleaned up the frame and then narrowed the tank, 1.5" on the bottom and .5 up top. Next is onto the bars and seat and fender combo.

Steve's chopped up FLH

We got a 72 Shovel, ratchet 4 spd and a good FLH frame. Its gettin all slimmed down, running a round swing arm, disk rear brake, spool 21 up front on a set of narrow 41mm trees from Acme Choppers, narrow frisco sporty and some other good shit to come.
