76 Ironhead chop

looks sik man defiantly loveing the axle plates bet shay cant wate to see it with frount end on rolling

Very cool! those axle plate interface thingys are neat, gunna stick with the whitewalls?

Yeah, I am. I specially got them actually. Not everyone's cup of tea for sure, but again, it is kind of a bucket list thing. I'm just hanging out to get it back home, put the front end on, and see what the lines are like (I have a feeling the tubes may need to be cut down a bit).

CUT THE TUBES

MORE TO COME JUST GOT TO SHOOT OUT FOR A MIN

i 2nd that

SOOO COOL! We are finally there - thanks Woody man, it looks great. Now, about those tubes...Any chance of a photo directly side on without the frame on the block of wood (so the whole weight is on the forks)?

I imagine that Woody has the lower frame rails level with the ground & 4 inches above it. Are you talking about cutting your fork tubes?

Yeah mate, but you'll have to wait till tomorrow for that one. Need to have a big clean up then Ill reposition the bike for a few better shots.

Nice job on those plates Woody. So much better than just that normal triangle shoved in there.

Thanks Irish. Don't know if id do it like this next time, way too much work.
But I did get a spare set cut so who knows.

nice work woody, shay you got the bomb there bud, upwards from here mate, keep it going.. cant wait!

Cheers Jon, I'm really going to miss not having this one in the garage after today, But I do look forward to seeing how Shay finishes it off.

shoot! that looks sharp, going to be a good rider...

cheers for sharing... un like me..

Yeah, that's sitting pretty Shay. Good work Woody. Impressed with you man cave there... all sorts of bikes, big screen TV on the wall. Where's the spa going to go?

looks awsome

Looks even better with Shay on it. I'll dig out that pic when I get back home.

That bike looks great Woody! Nice job.
Excuse my ignorance, I see 2 extra holes on the axle plate. I'm assuming one is for a fender stay. What's the other one for?
