First off thanks to Todd for giving up the back of his frame! :)

tonight I got the rear frame horns grafted on. I still need to do finish grinding on the inside and under the frame but I will wait to do that after it is tore down. To me it looks less like a hot rod frame now :albino: I'm turning into a restorer :)

Last night I worked on extending the exhaust pipes. Didn't finish yet but I got the tank today..... It sux to have to cut up an $$new$$ tank. But to clear the quick change it will need to be notched. I don't know if I will tackle this my self or seek out a welder.
