Nice try Sunnyknoll!
I think this little guy is going to stay with me. It's corrupted enough that it won't be strict resto, so it'll be the Lil hotrod. I ordered a set of ultra light Van K aluminum 5" wheel halfs yesterday, aluminum hubs, and I think it will get an old mechanical disc brake AirHeart Caliper that I have left over from a chopper project from years ago. I'm trying right now to decide whether it gets one of my 2 1/2 horse Briggs that I have laying around, or I go with my Jacobson 321 2 stroke if nothing but for the noise factor.
By the way, the "you guys practicing for the circus?" line came from a discussion with a Phoenix police officer at a mini bike day we held back on labor day. There is a video of my discussion with the officer on the Arizona Vintage Mini Bike facebook page, but unfortunately no audio... My he-man tough guy friends were all running away from the cops as I was pleading our case!
