Holy crap! She's well underway! And looks unbelievable!!! Even better than I pictured her when I was conceptualizing her in my mind, and then ordered the corresponding envisioned parts to build it that way! The new chrome front end's on (w/new neck bearings), along with the handlebars, PM Contour controls w/Renthal grips, Thunderstar wheel and PM caliper. The new Thunderstar rear wheel with matching chrome sprocket and floating rotor, PM caliper, and bitubos are on. All the PM Contour foot controls are mounted. It's getting close now. We went over the items needed to finish. New electronic speedo/tach, tail light/licence plate assembly, S&S A/C assembly of course (even though I'll be running a Mikuni!), and either FatCat or Thunderheader for exhaust! They have to work on wiring everything as necessary now. If they stay at it, she should be ready by Thanksgiving! Can't wait now!!! :2vrolijk_21:

All this on a HD 4-speed swing arm solid-mount Evo frame, one of the best frames there is IMO. But that's the only HD part that'll be left on this baby! Need a good name for her now! Suggestions? ;)

Took the Pro Street there, so no pics for now. Ain't the suspense killing youze?! ;D ;D ;D

Holy crap again!!! I just got a call from the shop. I better get my ass down there on Sat. We're hopefully firing the FXWG up on Sat for the first time. Everything's in and on and wired, except the new electronic speedo/tach. Can't wait!!! She might be coming back home soon!!! :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3:

Sounds like it's going to be Christine.

Here's a girl to fit the bill - Christine Rage.

HeHe!!! This is the Christine I had in mind:

Christine (also known as John Carpenter's Christine) is a 1983 horror film about a supernaturally malevolent automobile and its effects on the teenager who owns it, adapted from a novel written by Stephen King. The film was directed by John Carpenter, and set in 1978.
