thanks for the comments i think the shape may not be so pleasing when i put the boot back on as it has a rather bulky look to it as its design was s a practical wort tool for the american police this one came from richmond virginia police department

It's still not as bulky as some trikes I've seen though!

If that's genuine Police issue I think I'd run it completely standard, in Police livery. Old cop cars, (or trikes), are always cool!

not goin to out the bits i take off just going to play around n see if i like it will retain all bits so it can be put back as a meter maid police trike i even have the original strobe unit for blue n red lights the rear frame has a pole socket welded on at the back this trike aint a light weight i believe the great god clint eastwood rode one like this in a movie? got to change the handbrake as the fitted unit is in the brake line and that is not considered as a separate brake(its a small lever that acts as a mini master cylinder) but as the rear axle is from a ford bronco!!! reinstating the handbrake should not be to difficult will keep you posted i am told the company that carried out the conversion is kosman of california
