French Style Board Track. Torpedo

[Tim Gunn]

Hello, Thought you all might like to see the prototype machine I built back in the summer. Now working on a small run of builds. Based on the old French velodrome racers from circa; pre first war as my inspiration. Mostly custom made parts in my workshop. with adapted period copper tank. Now working on the final prototype with upgraded 90mm drum brake to the front and coaster rear hub. Thanks for looking. Cheers, Tim Gunn

That looks fantastic! Nice job on the tank! Loving the saddle and seat post as well. flows nicely. What frame maker is that?

It'll be handy for running errands at Montlhery.

Will you 'ave ze 'at to go with it?

Nice!

That bent tube makes it look a bit like a Iver-Johnson frame...
