Ok the lower mount bracket is roughed in as are the coaster brake mounts. These parts will get finished out later. I'm building these parts from pictures off the internet as I dont have a powerbike nearby to look at. They will be close enough to get it on the road..

The coaster brake and hub fitting up. These parts were missing. Next step is fitting a 32 tooth sprocket to the hub

The original continental aa7 had a forward kickstart. Finding one is impossible so I made my own. Maybe in time an original will show up. This will get us on the road

Check the smokstak forums. They have some old maytag washing machine engines and weird stuff like this shows up occasionally.
