Well, It's taken a while to get to this one, but the '46 frame that I got as shown in an earlier post in this thread has been Resto-Modified and is now a rideable bike again. As it was raised from a pile of parts, it has some newer technology implanted for the more practical side of life. Now equipped with a Bendix Automatic rear hub, laced to a nice S2 rear rim, and the standard Bendix removable axle front hub, this one should be quite nice as a riding machine. Still need to do a little striping on the guard and maybe something on the signplate..
This one gave me a few fits in the end - like where did I put the stand nuts, what happened to the chain I put in this drawer, and what did I do with the box with the seat and grips in it
?
Fortunately, I had a brainiac moment and remembered what I did with the stuff. The end result is a pretty nice, clean version of an old Cycle-Truck that looks good and should ride even better. (It's gotta stop raining eventually!)
Here are a couple of photos of the White Beast. (With a memory shot of the starting point for reference)
