I love the holes. My boys are 3&6 they help now cant what til I can help them with there first rides

 

Cheers Greg,looks a bit further on from when you & Rebekah last saw it.

Hopefully soon Mark, a rodder down the road has offered a lend of his creme coloured solids to get it to a major event coming up soon.

Ive lost track of how many holes, theres more you cant see.
Its great to get the kids involved , but ya cant push them, my boy is real good ,but I had to learn that they have other interest as well,some time you think they loose interest ,they dont realy,they just get a little sidetrack,Bill is also right into BMX ,which he's doing real good at, but hes always around to help out.

 

i just got updated. looking awesome. you an bill will be clockin up the miles soon enough. did you decide on a final colour?

 

KP, going to be Red -oxide for a while ,got plans down the track for a final colour......,well that todays story anyway

 

Got lent some wheels , plus fab'd up the 39 Chev Tailights mounts etc , spot the work boot steel toe caps...........

 

Paint those wheels black....done

 

.........And the body GREEN ,

yeah, would look alright, but the owner may get a bit piss'd if I rattle can his wheels....hahah

 

Don't paint the body green. That's just stupid !

 

Nice build. I think it's great that your 13 year old is involved, and getting credit...........Mike

 

Pete, get back out in the shed

Cheers Mike, he keeps me in line,its hard sometimes as he only 13,arh 14 now ,I dont push him ,because I got no time for kids who wont get off their arse's,he has other interest as kids his age do, but always hes here....
I owe a lot to my Rodding mates for guiding him also...........

 

That wheel/tyre combo is spot on!Is that the same set up you'll be using?
Great work guys.
Mark
