I haven't made the time to mock it up yet but I have done some investigation.

OBRIEN CYCLES

I have an email sent to Mr. Obrien seeking info and decals for restoration. Normally when I'm working on a project I here banjo music, this time I here heavy metal and yodeling.

Anyhows I gots to turn the music down, and dig through my clunker reject parts see if I have enough to rig up a test ride.
