Looks neat, just only thing i really would say is make sure its build right and safe, upgrade steering and up grade brakes, looks good tho. As for the paint job keep it vintage. And all so welcome to heymow

I live in the thumb. So far I have upgraded the brakes. It has an 8" disc with a go kart caliper.im unsure about doing steering upgrades. The steering wheel is connected to a gear that turns another shaft with a set of links running out to each tire what does everyone else do for steering upgrades. I am running centrifugal clutch to ragb to solid rear axle. Any input on this setup?

That kind of setup is what we run on super mod. Look at georges 07 build and you will see what i mean by upgraded steering
