Well,it looks like I might just incorporate this build into my '86.The '86 is really needing some attention.I put about 1,000 miles on her this weekend.The plug/cap is getting bad especially at high rpm's.I blew both beams of the headlight out,Blew the baffle out of the exhaust at about 70(gone)Nail in rear tire(which was already my spare)front tire has dryrot cracks,dents in tank from going down on black ice in Dallas,etc.So it's time she gets some love.Still going in the same direction with the build though.

Well,I decided rather to build another Savage with the '86 really needing attention I am going to just do the build on the '86.I started putting some of the parts on(seat,tires,etc.)The Maxxis Classics are alot taller than the IRC Wildflares.For right now I put the shocks back on.I need to make longer struts.The rear tire hits with 9" on center struts.The white seat went on with no hassles.Monday I will get the piece made for the exhaust to make it an upswept.Haven't decided on the gas tank yet.I might run the Sporty tank,but that's getting used too much.
Pics soon! Wink

Well let's try this build.....AGAIN.I see my pics are gone.So I'll give everybody a refresher.
This is the direction I'm going with it.

I'll probably do something different with the exhaust on this one,since I put that muffler on the '86.
I did decide the '86 will get redone.And this one will still get built.
Here's where I am so far....


I'm going to repaint the tank.Wasn't feeling the scallops,and they have some spots in them I don't like.The whitewalls went on the '86,so I'm going to probably put raised white letter tires on this one.I want to give it kind of a Mopar muscle car look.

Still need to tear the '86 down.But it's been so nice this winter I'm still riding every so often.Stole some of the '87 build parts to put on the '86.So here's what she looks like as of right now.
