Tim, who lives just north of Dallas, brought his bike over to me on Saturday to make some changes to the look of its rear end. It was previously running a front fender off another bike (Triumph?) as the rear fender, and it was spaced way off of the tire.
I changed the rear fender to a '36 Ford spare tire ring, built him an adjustable sissy bar/ fender brace, built a bottom mount for the fender, made some mounts and a front seat bracket for his new Fatlucky's seat, and built him a new license plate/ taillight bracket....changing to an original '36 Ford taillight in the process.
Here's a before shot of how the bike looked when he got it:
