This is my Whizzer. I made the tank the forks and lots of other parts from scratch. It has a Westman cylinder and head now. Working on a new handle bar mount will post updated pic later.

Absolutely beautiful.
I hope you can spend a whole lot of time riding it this spring/summer.
I think it looks quite classy, and tastefully done.
Please tell me it won't just become a trailer queen.

nice, Is it a early or late engine, seems to be early. You really need to have this also in the Whizzer section. Again Super Cool.

I agree that its beautiful work. I'd like to know more about your tank as well. Is it sheet metal or fiberglass? And if iits steel what guage? I love the rounded corners on the tank and your hand built parts like the forks. Also was it a kit whizzer or a whizzer frame to start with?
