Frame plans for sale .. don't fall for it.

Found this listing on E-Bay, old picture in front of my house. Sitting on my infamous beer can frame stands. At least he removed it with out a fuss. Another customer of mine had bought some plans online. A real bad joke. Nicely drawn in CAD but no engineering. Rip off of the old T bucket frame..  We built him a good one. Dear rileyautomotive, Eric The photo has been removed. Have a nice day. Chris - rod_plans
