You must have very tolerant neighbours in the uk if you did that in the street someone would phone the cops and they would be there giving you a ticket, nice build keep the videos coming

'Merica!

I have to finish my '67 into '75 Dodge dart transplant, but then I want to build one of these. Still searching for just the right inspiration, leaning towards a 1925 Chrysler moder 70, Bluebird. We have Chrysler family tree roots, so it's almost foreordained. Thanks for producing all of your videos.

[@stevevinson6030]

Fantastic, thanks for watching.

One important safety note, when you get down to where you are going to do your U turn, STOP! LOOK! Make sure a car hasn't come up behind you and about to pass, with a cyclekart a car running right over you; I learned this almost the hard way when I was about 12, doing loops around the neighborhood. I was never out of sight of my home, I got down near the end of the block and shot a quick U turn, just like you did, but suddenly there was the screeching of brakes, a car was going to pass when I turned. If he hadn't been able to stop I would have been UNDER that car. My neighborhood was an extremely low traffic area, just like yours. Don't take it for granted, STOP AND LOOK before turning.

Where did you get the seat from, I don't see it on your spreadsheet.

[@stevevinson6030]

The seat, I made by hand from aluminum. If I was going to do it again, I would buy the low back bomber seat from Speedway.

[@MrEdna182]

Way nice. Is your body support cage aluminum or steel? Way cool ride.

Thanks! 1/2" steel square tubing that I bent on my cheapo Harbor Freight bender
