Austin in Iowa
Hello
Would like to join the forum to read and learn more about metal shaping. I am 35 years old and have been restoring German cars and Italian scooters since I was 18. Looking to kick the plastic filler bucket!

Hi Austin and welcome.
Do you know Lee Bryant? He won the Cannonball race last year with a 1946 Salsbury with a Ninja motor in it. Jere

Nice selection of scooters there.
On the Cannonball everyone was calling his scooter "FRANKINBERRY" Look on the cannonball site it's on there. Jere

Didn't Lee come with you to Santa Cruz? Or was that a different Lee?

Hi Rick.
Lee did come with me. I had a hell of a time fitting the Ninja and redesigning the swing arm from a Yamaha. Two into one exhaust. Jere
