I've been working on this on this nights and weekends for the past couple weeks. I'd been holding onto the rear frame for over a year with a cargo bike in mind. The steering linkage will need to be rebuilt a little stiffer, but overall it rides good. I'm not sure if the handling is poor or if I just have to get used to it. It will get a nasty coat of primer for a few weeks to see if anything breaks or needs to be re worked, I might powdercoat it afterwards, we'll see. The box is going to be made from an old plywood real estate sign that I "aquired" from a company who fired a friend of mine a week after promising her 20% more a year. The frame is made from scrap frames with the exception of the long rectangular tube for the cargo area and the long rear headtube.
