OldMiniBikes Build-off 2013

[adarter]

I got some stuff I should use up. Ill get a pic up. Maybe I can do this if I get the boy off the video game to help.

 

[WLB]

The parts are starting to come together. Got a new Predator engine, front and rear wheels, jackshaft material and bearings, sprockets and wheel bearings are ordered. Still need a torque converter and belt, a piece of expanded metal and a length or two of steel. Will have to wait until the snow melts and the ground freezes to get my trailer out for the steel.

I'm still sitting on a five gallon bucket staring at a frame and forks.

Spent my Christmas money last night on parts from OldMiniBikes.
Still waiting for the motor, and hopefully that will be here in a few days. Trying to stay somewhat period correct for my build :smile:

Ya, I gotta order some parts from OldMiniBikes for the build off too, as soon as my boss mails me my paycheck. :thumbsup:

hey Clay, since it's around that time could I use my current project in the build off? I'm working on putting a briggs flathead in my beach cruiser bicycle with the style of a "ratbike/board track racer" in mind.. I'm still in the parts gathering stage at the moment but it's getting close to that time. it would obviously be running in open class. just curious because I dunno if you would still classify that as a mini. :doah: I don't expect to win anything I just wanna say I participated this year. :thumbsup: Oh and I won't be heart broken if you say no, I don't think I'll finish in time anyway :laugh:

As far as I'm concerned that should count for the build off. Just put it in open class. Glad you are joining this year, good luck in the build off. :thumbsup:
