 That front end should look cool.
 It's too bad everybody lives so far apart. I have a frame jig made from 2X3 box tubing tacked together, I checked out a similar frame on it.
  At the rear it has 1/2" steel mounts with holes for the 20mm axle and the swingarm. The front has frame shims and clamps. For measuring, I used plumb bobs and a triple tree with a piece of chrome moly tube inserted through it.
No matter how many times you paint over a shadow, it's still there.

Thanks Don. I think the front end will work out good.

Yes it is too bad we are not closer. I would definitely like to utilize the frame jig you have. Not to mention see your collection.
