 Mr Stump's called that for a reason. Some nice stainless there. Do they let you keep it?

O M F in G Cant say Ive ever seen work like that, gives the rest of us a bad name  I hope you sent photos to the people who rode it before you!!!!! after stripping down the trike to the frame and sending it away for shot blasting it came back like this  gooses trike  gooses trike  gooses trike  gooses trike  gooses trike after seeing this i was wondering if it was worth getting it rewelded or just bin it , a mate came over and said he could make a jig and put it right , if not he could make a new frame , hence he welded it and gave it back .

Thought you may have had V5 with it, as its got a number plate, previous owner details would be on it.

To be honest, its a wonder the whole of the frame did,nt drop apart as soon as it hit a pothole.....some w****ers give no thought to potential buyers. Good on ya in sticking it out and turning it into a good job.

Not surew where the pic is cos I can't see it! I had one of those on my leg - it's the reason I still HAVE a leg! I wanted to keep the framework to make a wine bottle holder for the trike - they would let me - but only if I paid £1000 for each ring - and there were four! |
