I found this little frame on CL and decided to get it and build something that the wife a daughter could ride.

After 5 coats of paint removed and some minor mods here it is now.

It will need a jackshaft added and some paint. A previous owner used a grinding wheel in an attempt to remove paint or something and really screwed up the frame so I decided that I will use wrinkle paint. Will update as I progress.

Dang!! I like the look of that a lot!! Lowered and big "10's"!! Stripping that red paint off left a cool effect....almost clear coat over it!!.......if it wasn't pink! :laugh: :thumbsup:

Thanks. I like the low stance on my bikes. Wouldn't do them any other way.

After 5 coats of paint clear over this sounds good. I will ride it like this for a while.

Here are the pics of the progress (slow progress). Added a JS today and had to make an intake manifold.

Here you can see the intake half way done and in the background the future fuel tank.

Thanks. Finally got her running today. The brakes took awhile to get here and I still need grips but she runs pretty good. I will paint it once I know that I have all the bugs worked out. Here are a couple of pics.
