Vintage Open - mrpat's TT500 - 2up Rupp

[SAT]

If I remember right, Markus IDed the Dumb and Dummer hog power-plant as a probable HS 40. It was runnin at altitude as well, so no worries there.
Nice foot peg fabbing job. Looks like that shop press at work again.
Nice work here,

Got the handle bars in the mail. A nice matching set. Welded on the missing seat brackets and the passenger handle bar bracket. I popped on 2 old seats just to show the direction of the build.

I'm loving the double handle bars Pat ! :thumbsup:

Shop press is more useful than I ever thought. Thanks!

This one is fun Joe, but I really don't have any "plans". Making it all up as I go.

Not me. Lol. Maybe I can get Bill to ride back there.

Maybe I can convince him to wear a clown nose and propeller hat.[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Better double check all those TAV/chain guard clearances. Clown pants have an affinity for power transmission systems. Plus, things grind to a halt really fast.
I like the propeller hat idea, I wonder how that would look on a fire helmet...
Cool ideas here,
Steve

Yeah, that's the idea anyways. We'll see if I can do it still. Lol.

Thanks!

Just a little mock up. I was sick of just seeing a pile of parts sitting in boxes. I made a plate to cover where the orignal gas tank would be. Getting closer to reality.

Thanks! I have a can of 2k clear to coat it and add a nice shine, but it's been too cold out. So while waiting, I need to start on the seats and freshen up the engine.

[MENTION=9664]cheezy1[/MENTION] was so kind to donate the tank that's going on it. Thanks Bill!

Love the color--I'd use two cans of 2k to make sure it's nice and thickly coated. Awesome for sure!

I'm really like the 2 handle bars and the color looks fantastic! To be honest with you I wasn't fully getting your concept at first but this is turning out to be a really cool build. Excellent workmanship!

Thanks! I have 1 can now, it's easy to get more (with Amazon) :laugh:
