1922 Studebaker frame, motor nmna

Challenge aside:  Wanna pick your grand kid up at school?  Wanna drive around the lake, have a pitcher and some clams then head home?  I believe a bigass motorcycle may do it.  Slowly.

OK Panther, where do we go from here?

This one doesn't have the wooden spokes, but a full dish moon type wheel.  (1st photo unrelated).

Is it on its way to your house yet? You and other teammates can bankroll the build; I'll provide the 24 x 40 insulated shop and tools. 

Only 9' side walls, but a nice shop. I could probably empty about 1/2 of it, to dedicate to a build. 

In reply to 914Driver :

Oh, and first, that was very mean to lead me there! 

and second, that was really mean to include a unrelated teaser picture. I was WAY down  a rabbit hole, before I saw the disclaimer. 

Anything for you ....

In reply to 914Driver :

The Stude' ad is deleted by owner, so I assume sold. I checked from time to time!

But the Nash up north is still up!!!  Hint, hint. 

I was this close [   ] to selling the Metropolitan and engine to build a 20 ft. long Nash motorcycle that doesn't go fast (speedster)  I'm looking for a 4 cylinder RWD something as the BMW engine is a problem.

I can put my hands on a couple of late 70s anemic 4 cyls in a friends back lot in VA. Don't remember what's back there. I know a chevette is... ya did mention slow!

Nothing with any "cool"factor!

Slow was referring to the speedster.

Yep! And great picture. I think a tiny slow chevette engine would have enough power, but goodness, what a boring engine. Would have to lie about what it was powered with!

The one in the picture is powered by a 14 liter (854 cu. in.)  4 cylinder engine.

I'll let myself out, now...
