Old Crusty- 1958 FC170

I have to admit I'm digging the light fixture... Seriously that's an awesome idea, I'm totally stealing it.

Little progress today

Finished welding the bracket and modified the factory a little bit.

Damn, don't know how I missed the video of your cruise in this thing, it looks like a blast. Progress is looking good. Rigs like this put a smile on my face.

Thanks, it's a blast alright. It steers where it wants, I just generally point it in the right direction.,
 
Nicely done!! What MC did you end up using? Off of what vehicle?

It's a universal one from wilwood. Fits like a glove with minor modifications.

I just ordered custom length braided lines for the frame to the axle. The factory length ones I ordered from crown are a bit to tight flexing out. Like it can't even go over a curb.

So soon as they come in I can bleed the system and see if it's improved.

What do you do about brake lights? Is one of those ports on this to hook up a pressure switch or do you just not worry about it?
