frankenstein rear end knock-off

Here she sits....

IF I get a chance tomorrow I will weld on the new wheel flanges and machine up the bolt circle. (But time is scarce these days)

I did make the cross pcs today from 1.5" tube with inset led taillights....then once they were finished I realized I goofed and it was supposed to be 1.250 tube. So lost about 4 hrs of work right there. Live and learn though

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

Best, Bob Davidson

John, if it's ok, i'll also put those up in the plan download area. and i've been meaning to ask you, do you still have those measurements you used to build a master cylinder?

cool stuff, can't wait to see more as it comes together.

sure Dan...gotta share the knowledge. Although take these doodles as a starting point only. Some times I make changes in dimensions on the fly if I need to. These should get anyone started though.

these 2 hand drawn sketches go together to make one single drawing.

I can't say how long it will take to get it done, but I'll tackle putting all of this into a cad file. I've got some spare time during work to do this.

awesome, thanks John! now that kinda stuff is why i love this place. builders sharing ideas and info. for now, i'll put the drawings as-is in the plans thread, and then when ampster hooks us up with the cad, we'll put that up too.

i've gotta make it to Canada one of these days and have a few rounds with you, Ken and the other guys from up that way.
