So my birthday has passed and I got a lot of goodies from my friends and family. My collection of tools is now enriched by a Hitachi drill, a set of drill bits for any occasion, a motorcycle jack, an impact driver, a work bench and a brand new torque wrench.
While looking over the parts I noticed that I am missing a lot, I mean a lot. On the bright side I am planning to build a bobber, so I will not need most of the body parts that are missing, but the mechanical parts, that can pose a problem. Luckily, all the parts that I looked up so far are available on line and they are relatively cheap. As I have already posted, the bike cost me $25.00. At this point it looks like I will have to put in another $200-$300 to complete it. That will be done gradually (when my better half is not looking).
All the parts are laid out on my garage floor, most have been cleaned, at least the ones that are needed for the chassis assembly. Now that I have my frame secured on a lift I am going to proceed with that. After I am finished with the chassis, I will start on the engine.
Below are some pictures of my layout:
