Clean the windscreen before you drive it.

Lindy,

Yes, I made it from the cowl back. I found it wasn't too bad to bend the first tube, but very difficult to bend the next one to be symmetrically opposite.

I think the headlight mounts came from Speedway and had to drill holes in the frame horns to mount.

Mike,

Yours is very nice. I hope that it is fun to drive.

Very nice job. Especially the sheet metal work. Love the red, whi???, and blue color scheme.
Sold mine couple month sago, but here is what mine looked like.
