Lucky you :doah: We have had wind chills in the single digits all day :censure:

Nice work :thumbsup: but why didn't you just weld a plate in :shrug:

The plate will be welded from the inside , only thing I had to go off was my El Tigre and that's how it is ? Keeps clean lines I think , what ya think Randy ? I'm open for ideas !

I would have wrapped it between the triple trees or just welded a flat in the same place :shrug:

I love the seat material. Should look cool with that powder coat!

 

[chipper]

Thanks Pat , it'll be an eye catcher I'm hoping !
