I built this from plans in a book printed in 1906. It runs and is rideable, but I wouldn't want to go too far.

Another shot. Not quite finished yet, still need to do the script on the tank and fit my wicker picnic basket to the rear rack.

Murdo...that is AWESOME! 

I have WAYYYYYY to many projects i have done to list them all that the wife has called me an idiot.  I bought a crane because my lake needed dredged (also bought a bulldozer to move the muck the crane dredged LOL).  I built a 1927 model T and widened 8" and lengthened the body 14" because i wanted more room in it.  I have a 3d printer that I play around on.  I have built multiple show cars and motorcycles in the past.  Traveled and done some motorcycle stunt shows in my younger years. I bought our first house without my wife knowing (she had never even seen the house)....that one got me in trouble LOL.  The list goes on and on LOL but you get the idea.  I have a very strong feeling that this thread will only lead to me getting in more trouble when i see some of the things you guys have done and then i think "that would be fun....i need to do that " LOL
I can imagine a world completely at peace.  A world where there are no weapons, no war, and no violence at all.  And I can imagine us taking over that world because they would never expect it.

A bike is on the list after the house gets done, if I want to stay married. Here is one I did after poking around YouTube.

This is some cool stuff guys. Chuddly, I wish I had the money you've spent on your projects.

My biggest project was my old Grizzly. I even made a complete exhaust all the way from the header to the snorkel.





I have a '67 Chevy C10 I want to fix up now. I have a built 355 to put in it. Just don't have the time or money to do it right now.

Altho the bent tailpipe is probably more practical, I think one of the flapper tops would be sweet. I would find all sorts of trouble with that thing.

Those are the same wheels and tires that are on my ZForce now. I didn't find as much trouble as I wanted with it, because it kept breaking down all the time. That's why I got the Z. So far it's been a lot more reliable. I hope it stays that way.
