I'll probably never finish, I don't have any specific plan, I just dabble at it. Here are most but not all my bikes. I've also got 100+ engines, flatheads mostly. Some run,most don't.
Nice bike.

I will say I can't believe the fork bolt, looks like 1/4 inch. I redone the pictures. I don't have any idea what it is and the rear wheel brakes don't help me either
Nice looking bike. Trying to get those speeds on those little tires I hope you are wearing a helmet. And you need a brake upgrade. Bigger wheels with disk brakes would be a good upgrade.
You will probably have to build your own unless you get lucky and some has cut one off. You could buy a set of 10 inch wheels for another bike like a speedway or rupp and change them out. Thunderbird and nice looking bikes but they like to wheelie, not good for kids or new riders.

Id say it's kinda a survivor. As of right now my plan is to try to get it running andfind an old original seat that matches the bikes patina. Don't know if the throttle and brake levers can be saved or the cables. The muffler is rotten so it will need changed. It will never be a tru survivor but...
Went to the auction today picked up what I think is pretty much a original Lil Indian. Motor or pullstart is stuck along with the brake but I think there original. Slathered it with some ATF to try and loosen everything up. I’m not tearing this one apart(yet) going to try to just put it back...
