This is the beginnings of my friend Wayne's mini bike dragster. twin 6.5 hp clone motors from Harbor Freight.It's just for fun. It should be a laugh and a week in the hospital when done.

Found a grill at the Big E swap meet today and am not sure of what it is from. I was told it was from 39 chevy but I'm thinking it looks more like a 34. any ideas?
