Pic´s from Bilsport Custom Motor Show 2005

Postby Christer » 30 Mar 2005 21:42

I was at Bilsport Custom Motor Show (Pic´s see: http://www.custommotorshow.se/2005/bilder.php )the monday that was. A 150 km travel to get there. Was it worth it? YES! Definitely NOT because of all Japanese loudspeaker driven cars, :s007: (Not my favourite type of car....).....but because of a Madman (stuntman????) from the UK named Terry Grant ( www.terrygrant.com ) AND because of a rare Hemi Challenger :s024: . Yes, I enjoyed it :!: Mopar musclecars were VERY rare though :rage: :s021: :fight: . I only found two (2!) among 500 objects.

Tought I would share my pic´s. I have recently (finally!) bought a digicam but the flashlight is not dimensioned for very long distances (or is it just an excuse... :oops: ). Hope you enjoy some of them. I hope you excuse me for also showing non-mopars.

Maybe this car would have been James Dean´s dreamcar if he still had been alive. (Live fast - Die young....)

No propeller shaft. Not chain-driven. Not fluid driven. Not front wheel-driven. Any clues, Dave? :wink:

A guy that is trying to compensate for his lack of length? Doesn´t seem to be working out very well. :mrgreen:

He pushed it? :lol:

Maybe a drive belt or chain in the frame?

Not as cool looking as Billy Lane's rear wheel.

The answer is that another wheel is placed under the seat. This wheel works directly against the rear wheel. I doubt that this solution works very well under wet conditions and so on....

Cool! I would like to see a pic from the other side of the bike though. It looks like the rear wheel "is flying" from this angle.

Another wheel under the seat? Of course! :bonk:

Here are some pictures of that hub-less rear wheel from Choppers Inc.

It looks as if it would be seriously under geared to me. :D
