    I wasn't happy with the way my rear bumper/pushbar/nerf/whatever was looking so I kinda "Jesse James"ed it up. I saw a bike he built that had a holy downtube and I liked the look ,he also did one similar on his 36 coupe . I just used 2 inch black pipe and bulleted the ends and used a holesaw in my bridgeport to drill it out . I used one of those cheapy pipe benders to get the curve.

    I wonder if you plug different holes if it will play a tune as you go down the road?

    Some lawyer is gonna get rich on those javelin points.
    I think it would look better as a solid bar (no holes).Or use those holes as third brake lights.

    I like it.
    Them are "speed holes".:cool:

    You'll shoot your eye out.:D
    Yeah, and you're going to burn yourself on lakester headers, etc, etc. ................:rolleyes:

    If anyone gets hurt, it serves them right for gettin' too close to your car and if you get hurt, well....then your just dumb. Remember, you built the damn thing, you'd think you'd remember that the thing is pointy.:D

    Besides, it doesn't look like it sticks out farther than the rear quarter. Someone would almost have to want to get hit in order to hit it.
