Not everyone has a "survivor" bike they can redo.....so try to keep everything vintage with exceptions for chains,grips,seats...ect. There is an understanding that not every part can be NOS. Vintage open you can go crazy with it. I hope this clears it up a little better.

I want to make sure I understand the rules, so I'll ask this: I am doing a vintage ARCO Easy Rider. but I cant find Easy rider bars or an Easy rider tank. Can I use Rupp Bars and a Rupp tank and maybe re-pop vintage fenders and still call it vintage class or would it have to be Vintage open class.
Thanks

That would be considered a vintage class bike, sir.

You can enter as of the 1st of Jan. If you watch you can pretty much copy how others do it. Click here..http://www.oldminibikes.com/forum/O...MiniBikes-build-2016-classes-rules.html...and it will show you the rules and classes.

Lol Tom! Yes, vintage open..... sounds like a cool idea to me, but one thing....please wear your helmet. ;-)

Hey guys ...just a thought, would the Grand Prix frame be correct in the Vintage Open class ?

Way to step up Pat and Bill, and thanks Hent for kicking this off. I applaud the selection methodology! Finally, we're doing it right. Looks like this will be a good year for the Build Off! :thumbsup:

Go for it E! Vintage Open is an old frame as a starting point, but more customized.
