eBlag, or how I learned to love the trike!

Post by Mad B0B »

OK I know I am paraphrasing a superb film, but eBay has made me a little poorer over the last weekend.

I have managed to pick up the start to my own trike consisting of a J and S Hotrod VW kit and the back end (well practically the whole car less the engine) of a 1303s Beatle!

This, as you all know, means that I am starting my build in the coming weeks, starting this weekend with a 500 mile round trip to pick the parts up from Stoke on Trent and then across to Essex!

I will be charting my progress over on a site I have setup, trike.dragonsweyr.org, where hopefully I can show how badly I do things ;)

When I do an update on my site I will post in here as well :)

Wish me luck

Any build has to be great fun. May it be free of fraught moments.

And, thanks for kepping us updated on here too.
