Big push forward to get the main loop of the frame done. Bent up the single down tube first by putting it through the ring roller the give it a gradual curve and the in the tubing bender to finish off the shape.
Starting to look like a frame. got the rear upper wishbones bent and shaped up in place and the pieces for the lower legs bent. Set the motor in place ready for the downtube.
Love the look of having all the tubing curved.
Got a start on the frame i am building with the help of my good friend Ty Branum.
I will be building a single downtube frame with as much rolled steel a possible to give the frame a nice evenly flowed look instead of the abrupt lines stock frames have.
This frame will be stock dimensions to a 1958 panhead and feature castings that resemble a stock frame.
About to get started on my next full build with this 1969 Shovelhead engine and matching transmission. Motor and transmission were rebuild buy Dan Carr from Bacons choppers.
I will be building a full custom show chopper and entering in this years Showclass Magazine's: Peoples Champ 5 contest.
