Hi all.
This is my last build in this shop so I thought I'd share it.
I have a week before the moving trucks come (9/7) to move us up North.
We bought a house ;-}
It's another of my 10G long shaft shifters, this one has a NuVinci CVT rear hub shifter and will be sporting cream tires, seat, and hand stitched cream leather grips.
It started with a real Skyhawk GTA-135-DB frame with my special engine mount plate welled in, and then powder coated with a nice textured cherry wood vein finish.
I got some cool spinger forks, black rims and spokes for it.
I could fit the engine and G10 in now...
But that will just add to the weight moving it around before I get the cream tires on it.
In other news I gave my helper free rein of the shop to build himself a 'thank you' MB for his help with me.
Good experienced help is hard to find for $35 a day.
