Of course, I'm doing it my way (yes at one point I was thinking of a supercharger sticking out with tubs & slicks on the back).

I'm using pins for spokes, 48/wheel (24 on the inside, 24 on the outside. Here's the pics:

Needs to be cleaned up yet






Got bored drilling holes, so I jumped to the frame. The original is toast but will work as a template.

Cheers!
