Breaking her down. Rode alright. Weak out of hole. Found an engine on ebay from Bad Dog. A user here referred me to george for a orginal tank. Here are the pic of a quick mock up.
I bought a 19" seat and it was too big for frame, so I had a seat pan fabricated, with additional supports.
Thats pretty much where Im at. a lot of fitting right now cuttin chain back, drilling new mount holes, gettin ready 4 power coat.
little more progress. Did some fitting, drilled new mounts, added atv risers for bars, and added derailer and adjusted chain. while bike is at powder coat will get engine running.Got a Mikuni carb, didnt like the way the updraft throttle had to be routed. Its for sale if anybody wants it. Sorry pics are in no paticular order.
Ok here she is!! Got the FAT LADY back from powder. What a great job they did, and what a biatch it was for fitment of the bolts because I had them coated too. But I got it all fitted. The rimms were very rusted and came out great. The only thing was that I lost was a spoke and a bearing. Ordered the bearings already, if anybody knows where I can get a spoke for these Italian rimms it would be great. The only thing that bothers me is that I went with a green that is close to the DB green. Dont want people to get confused that it is an ARCO, and the FAT LADY is an EASY RIDER !!!!!! LOL HERE is the progress.
Next step, breakin down 5hp and getting her rollin. Keep ya up dated. Gotta get this one done. I think I got a t-bird on the way.
