Starting a board track build. It is using a rollfast frame and suspension. The tank is divided into two sections, main and reserve. Here are the first progress photos.
It will be a standard 66cc. Of course modified to look more like the original long stroke engine.
It will be a while before I get to the engine. There is also a 2cycle tecumseh sitting in the basement that looks like it could also be a canidate for this build.
Now that I have built a tank, the $200 others are selling for a custom tank sounds like a very reasonable price.
However I have the time (retired) and am a DIY guy.
I hope you reuse that great original front springer fork. It would look great on this project.
What a AWESOME start love the double loop in the frame
I would use the Tecumesh. Go to motorbicycling.com and look upratrodboardtracker. under boardtracker and vintage motorized bicycles..........Curt
