    I started with a 1954 Harley servi-car trike frame I picked up at a swap meet, and the running gear from a 1952 crosley. Hand laid fiberglass body painted candy tangerine IMG_4820.JPG IMG_4924.JPG IMG_0122.JPG

    The spirit of Big Daddy Roth is alive and well. Remember to slow down on the corners. LOL

    Wow! I love the color! The whole design is really well executed and works together. I bet that can be a handful if you want it to be...:cool:

  24. What a great build. The fact that you pictured this from that bare frame now that’s something.

    I bought my first Street Chopper Magazine in 1971 when I was 16 and always thought 3-wheelers were cool, it seemed there were alot more back then. Your 3-Wheeler has the look and has always been one of my favorite's. Here are 2 pictures I have saved in my pictures. Very Nice. thumbnail_cimg0032-1--3b1a659.jpg thumbnail_photoshoot005-1.jpg
