Heres some pics of how its going.

Need a new flywheel cover since the one that came with the motor had a chunk taken off front the chain coming off sometime in its life.

Will be putting carb and electrical on next and making some mounts for the crf 70 tank.

Just need to order some new white plastics and get some custom grahpics made.

May fab a 150R muffler to fit instead of the bbr muffler since I am not digging the looks of it. May do that later on though down the road.

Thanks man I appreciate it. Most of the time I post pics I never get anyone to reply. LOL

I have a stock cr 80 frame with title and complete used plastic with gas tank. Will be posting this stuff up forsale tonight on here if anyone is interested in doing there own conversion.

spiz5 · 08-29-2009, 07:21 PM

AJ from Service Honda runs a 150R pipe on his conversion as well, but he has a Kitaco stroker motor. Any plans on racing it? At Fox Valley and Megacross we get about 20-30 guys racing the thumper class. Get it finished and bring it out to the next rounds.

Updated pics from over the weekend. Welded on some new gas tank mounts since it has a crf 70 tank on it now. Installed the electrical. Just need to clean the carb out and put it on and some other little stuff. Still have to get a new flywheel cover. Plastics actually look good with the camera flash but are older and need new ones for sure later on. Getting some taller bars along with some goodies and need to figure out what length chain I need.

Hopefully the motor runs good though but we shall see soon I hope.

what car is in the background?
is it a vette stingray?

USERNAME · 09-01-2009, 10:07 PM

Its my old mans vette. Its a 69 vette that he bought new in 69 when he came back from vietnam and still has it to this day. I have yet to see one with the options or one like it. Its cortez silver with the rare two top option so it has a black soft top and black hardtop and can be a vert. Motor is the special factory optioned 350/350hp with 11:1 compression ratio and is a 4spd. In the time had it he had the rear valance filled in where the exhaust used to run out the back and put the headers and side pipes on it and is running a L88 hood. Has those old 5 spoke mags on it also.

Will post a pic of it tomorrow since I see two of you guys asked about it. LOL

Wandell · 09-02-2009, 10:38 AM

Sweet bike and Vette!!

micromachine · 09-02-2009, 01:47 PM

cool bike, what size wheels are they?

USERNAME · 09-02-2009, 09:01 PM

Thanks guys and pic of the vette will be up in a bit.

Wheel size is the standard 80 or 85 small wheel bike. Some guys like the big wheel versions but for me the small wheel is what I like.

USERNAME · 09-03-2009, 08:58 PM

Sorry here is a pic of the vette. Hope ya enjoy.

Been busy putting in a new clutch on my ta so have not had time to put one up or work on this bike or other projects. LOL

gbunner · 09-03-2009, 09:05 PM

Nice Vette, What year T/A you have?

USERNAME · 09-03-2009, 09:33 PM

2000 WS6 Ram Air T/A that is built up.

We have had plenty of old muscle cars over a period of time. Even custom built a complete shelby cobra and made our own tube frame and even made our own fiberglass body mould to make shelby cobra bodys out of. My dad and buddy were supposed to make a business selling parts to build them or build complete cars for people. They built one car and had it at the World of Wheels in the early 90s. Was one of the nicest fitting shelby cobra bodys and chassis I have seen. Badass car for sure.

They did a miami vice car using the ferarri body on a vette chassis for a owner of a chevy dealership.

My old man also has a 67 caprice with a bbc and a very rare and unique 66 corvair with a v8 mid engine conversion running a 327 with a 4spd. My brother used to have a 68 elcamino with bbc. I got a 79 malibu I have as a roller right now for a street/strip car project. Putting a bbc in that as well or may sell it to build what I really want.

I really wanna build a 60s drag car style straight axle gasser or altered wheel base f/x car. Like a 55 or 56 chevy or 62 to 63 nova. Willys coupes are badass but too expensive for my pocket. Almost bought a 55 post project but it needed alot of work and just wanted something to that I could drive right away. My dad wants to build one too.

Jthomas7 · 09-03-2009, 10:11 PM

any close ups of your air boot? I got my conversion today and they are just using a pod filter and it kind of sticks out on the right side, doesn't look good. The problem is the air boot on that bike ran on the left side, and the carburetor goes to the left.
