Iv got loads of rod pictures on my other pc...

I fancy a trike but a hot rod would come first on my list. I want to do one next. The only thing that would put me off is the new regs coming in so they need sva..

That trike is very cool if a little dangerous looking but its got to be a HotRod i reckon.

both are very cool, however, building a hotrod is undoubtedly harder due to the masses of bodywork. Id build a trike.

People may correct me but I just can't see the point of a trike.

IMHO all the downsides of a bike and a car rolled into one.

You get wet and can't go round corners as quick.

Great looking don't get me wrong but I just dont get them.

Or am I missing something?





I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.

It has to be the 'Exile' style trike first ( but with narrower rear wheelsn not drag a bike) and then a hotrod.





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Hot rod, hope to finish mine one day but am worried about the regs changing all the time. Will be a good parts chaser for locost though.
