 |
|
So last weekend my buddy Jase and I were talking how we really missed an Uber rat at the show's this season,
So we had this hair brained idea to get something happening for yesterday(Our Easter show).
As some of you know I built a rat CB back in 2005......
What most people don't know was there was another, much rattier CB (KO752) That Dad and I owned at the same time. It has been dragged through a few house moves and was happily out to pasture in Dad's yard, until last Saturday that is, hahaha.
As it was only a body we needed a pan too, so Dad donated the pan from under a half built choptop that he recently found......
We threw in a spare long axle box, got the body on and took it around to HQ............
The Pan as of Sunday............
The Pan as of Tuesday, 6in narrowed beam, notched spring plates lowered 3 splines, 17in Escras............
Engine in.......
And Body half on Thursday..........
And Thursday arvo we're done..............
2Dots ignition panel.............
All loaded up and ready for the show......
A few pics from the show yesterday...........
And parked up with my mate's CB KO377........
By far the best original un-restored CB I've ever seen...........
Huge Thanks to Jase, Dad, 2dots, Brodie and all the other Bendigo Squadron boys 
It was a huge hit

Cheers for the positive comments guys 
It's been a lot of fun, and at least it's not just returning to the earth in a field somewhere.

Since last year, after having engine dramas, it's been sitting in the corner of the shed neglected...
After a long hibernation we thought we might as well throw another engine in the CB and take it along to the Jamboree (a VW show here).
Big thanks to all the Bendigo squadron, couldn't have got it there with out you guys!
Few pics from Sunday, even took home some silverware......
