Does anybody know the progress on the frames? Completed, cancelled, still in production?

If you call him you will probably get a quicker response. Every time I have called Bud himself answered the phone.

That would be really rad if he started producing those, especially for those of us who are in the rust belt.

I dont think they'll be going for 1500.00 . If they are , bud is loosing $$$$

We looked into building them ourselves here in Canada . I built one for my "hot rod "




a frame very simular to stock would run at least 2000 -2500 + , not powdercoated .. and then you will have the freight to worry about .. easly bringing the purchace to 3G +


.
