He's a Old School Felt Chief that I started building today... I'll post more as it comes along. :)

It's almost finished... All that's left to do is lace a Sturmey front drum into the wheel.
I'm going with the drum because it's more correct looking for the bike, & easier to install than a disc.

Here's a little update...

I built the wheel yesterday, & today I welded a small tab on the inner fork leg to lock in the drum brake arm.

I tried different bands & clamps on the fork leg, but everything looked cheezy... So I made the tab.
