Baja build from parts. Work in progress.

#1
I started on this project awhile ago and posted a couple pictures. Here are some updated photos. The biggest changes will be the creating of a battery box, installation of a real tank, new Speed Racer tire, relocation of the electric starter switch and new front forks to change the look and add a brake. Started out with one idea and then switched mid stream. let me know what you think and if you have any ideas. I need some help input on colors etc.... Not too bad considering I started with a box of parts.

Kinda like one of those old model kits where you could build it in different versions. For a battery mount maybe weld a bracket to the front tubes ahead of the engine to mount the box. And think out of the box, on my T-Bird I found one of those 3x5 recipe card boxes at Wally World, fit my gell cell like a glove. Just drilled a couple holes to run the leads, and on mine bolted it to the old fuel tank mount on the engine.
