Project "Fix this F'd up Skeeter" gets under way...Eh

[Bananas for Bonanzas]

I just finished the seat, and I'm patiently waiting for my rear fender and clutch cover to arrive so I can to restore them. They look like they are in pretty bad shape.

Wow, talk about back from the dead.:thumbsup:

They can't give me crap anymore. You are now the slowest.:laugh:

Great looking bike.:thumbsup:

 

[Bananas for Bonanzas]

HA! Yes I am, but with good reason. Most of my project time goes into my Dodge van project.

Thanks for the compliment

 

[buckeye]

Pics of said van?:laugh:

You are welcome. That bike is just super clean and done right.:thumbsup:

Man did you do a great job on that bike. After the first page, I wouldn't have touched it.Congrats on great work!:thumbsup:

 

[Bananas for Bonanzas]

THANKS! When I got the bike, it was pretty much rusted in half. I had second thoughts at first for sure, but as much as I love Bonanzas, I felt like I needed to restore this one, because there just aren't many alive any longer.

This is the biggest time suck of mine. It's come a LONG way, and I'm almost done. I just built the hood scoop from scratch last week. It's a functioning ram air, and it's all steel.

Thanks OND:thumbsup:

Thanks Ludicrous Speed. Vans are easy projects to get into, you should do another one. They are great mini haulers

The van is great! The bike is awesome as well. Good work on both!

The Holy Grail of Moto Skeeter parts. These finally surfaced. I've been searching for these since the day I started this project, and I honestly thought I'd never find them. They're not in great condition, but I don't care. Now, the throttle/brake lever set is still eluding me.

I ordered the "moto skeeter" foot pegs from Rt21 Trading, and they are junk, don't waste your time with them. They are what you would find on a Chinese pocket bike. I picked up the stuff to make my own

Great bike BTW

Thanks bikebudy, but I'm looking for the original style, with the housings.

And thanks!

 

[bikebudy]

All good, I was not sure if they were the same or not.

Can you post a pic of them ?

Also try Richard Shantz == Richards email is: bse440@quadro.net

When I was going to the snowmobile shows, Richard is Huge Moto-Ski guy and should be able to help.
By having the parts OR knowing where to send you.

BTW, he is in Canada

I have heard he's a bit slow on the e-mails, so be patient.

 

[Bananas for Bonanzas]

That is awesome, thank you for the info. I'll email him tomorrow

I got the clutch cover and rear fender back from chrome. Just a few more parts to find.
