Building A Custom Trike With Leg Room

by JERRY CRACKEL
(stover mo.)

I haven’t got started yet but I have collected some of what I’m using. What I’m going to build is a custom trike out of a 1990 s-10 with a 4.3 v-6 automatic. The reason for this my fiancé has a handicap and can’t ride on the back of my bike so I decided to build us a custom trike with a full seat and plenty of leg room. AUTOMATIC so she can drive it the one problem that I have ran up against is the forks I want to build a girder fork but I can’t find info on where I can get these parts machined are bought maybe someone can help me with that I have researched a lot of data I have built custom hot rods before I’m going to use the back half of a 55 Studebaker for the trunk and seat for her and a swivel seat for the rider so she can easily get on and off I’m going to use bars from the triple tree to the girder for steering there are still some details I have to work out but I’m confident it will all come together when I get it started I will forward some photos well till we meet again HAPPY TRAILS.

Sounds like your going to be having a lot of fun building that "Trike". I'm jealous, but very interested in seeing your progress with the build so keep us updated and don't forget to take pictures. Good luck.
