Here in Lynchburg we had a "Car show" Saturday . Some Really Nice Cars were there !
On the way into the park , up in front of one of the BBQ shops there was this Rat Bike that looked like a decorative piece you might find out in front of a junk yard (Yard-Art) , cool looking collection of parts .
On my way out of the park ... there was this Rat-Bike , same one--- it had moved !!!
I couldn't hardly believe it ... I chatted with the rider for a while. Come to find out its a Diesel Water Pump Motor . He said when he left Oregon all the part were shinny sanded steel. He cranked it up and it sounded good as any bike I've ever heard . While the motor was idling (600rpm-ish) the tork-converter was tugging on the belt as if to say "Let's Go" !
There are more pictures of it on the Scavenger Hunt Thread .
