This was too cool to go in the Mini Forum. Besides, I'm not a mini...

Started cleaning Little Ricky last Saturday, kept going a little further, then a little further. Next thing you know, it's got a powder-coated frame, B35 race fuel, and a bunch of other cool stuff! Hand cut numbers for the backgrounds to mimic RC's race "#4". Still waiting on my side number plates/rear fender plastic, and my UNI pod filter. All should be in Tuesday.

Here's a chronological picture list for the rebuild so far:

Lou, please stop posting pictures of that mini-monster! I might do something really stupid like buy myself a new xr50! Of course, I do have a two year old, so I could say it's for him. I just need a way of explaining the taller bars and mods.

That thing looks absolutely awesome!

OK, you got all the foofy eye candy stuff done. Now the question remains when are you going to breath some nitro-doped fire into that little bugger? ;)

BTW, it does look SWEET, but my scuffed and scratched TTR will put a man-sized ass whoopin on that little toy :aj:

I did the frame myself. Sandblasted and epoxy powder-coated it at work. btw-sandblasting sux big time!

Rich-He's runnin' B35 right now. Maybe by DW it will be an 88cc, fire-breathin' big bore? :aj:
