Pee-Wee's Big Adventure Bike

Abe ....yes on both counts and I'm going to chrome the resin and it's curved on the back. I took measurements off the one at the Bicycle Museum of America when I was working on theirs and took a rubbing off the front to get the right pattern for the lines. I even copied the screw hole because that is where one of the screws to hold it together goes.

You gonna make those available for sale?

 

[Droidboy]

Probably.

Here are some more pics of how I'm attaching my rear skirt to the frame.

Thanks. This is the last part to powder coat and then I can ride it!

 

[Droidboy]

Back from powder coat!!

Riding it is the best part, go take her out. Where is the back plate for your tiger siren, btw? No electronics in it?

 

[Droidboy]

I'm actually going to be re-doing the tiger siren now that I'll have access to a proper sized one and not the smaller KansasJack one.

I can't wait to take her out. We have a canal and river path system in downtown Indy that I'm dying to take her out on. There is a group of riders that goes out every Friday night, so now that she is rebuilt, I can join them.

That looks great!

I watching the clown dream sequence today for reference purposes, and I noticed something very odd about the bike as it's being moved by the claw:

The sprocket is totally different here. Anyone know where this one came from?

 

[Droidboy]

I've often wondered if those parts aren't in Paul's collection

 

[Ruddigger]

The dream sequence bike was a collection of scrap parts it seems. There are a few odd things about it. I remember it being discussed earlier in the thread.

Who will be the first to make the dream X1? Haha!

Well, I'd be willing to give it a shot! :lol But I need a chance to find a frame first! I found an awesome rat rod 50's dx that's in SC for $275 The guy said he'd take $240 minimum, but I'm in no shape to have me and my father go driving out that far up north. I also found a 41 Schwinn excelsior, even though it's pre-war, it'd be nice to see if they'd take a offer.

I like that DX. It even comes with the persons siren.

 

[DalekMcFly]

Actually the seller is not selling the persons siren which really is a downer, but I do like the light on the fender too. It's probably the best deal I've seen on a dx, I just don't know how I'd be able to get it here. But I'm gonna keep looking around every now and then.

Just keep using that trunk mounted bike rack and you'll have a dream bike soon enough. Lol

 

[Droidboy]

A little progress on my badges for the tank.

 

[Ruddigger]

Those look nice. You're making both sides identical then?
