Whoa! LOL. I remember about 10 years ago seeing a local bike powered by a small block V8. Sounded nasty. It definitely turned heads. Never saw it again after that.

Local guy, Bill Flynn, who used to have a shop in Wallingford. He was notorious back in the late '60s and early '70s.

I couldn't remember the name of the company, but they used to advertise V8 powered trikes in one of the old car magazines. Most were SBC but they even had a 454 option. They also had regular motorcycle ones with shaft drives too. That would have been insane. There was one local guy that had an SBC trike and drove it all over the place in summer.

Could you imagine how hot some of those glass bubble tops would have gotten in the 50’s?
I think a fighter canopy would be badass.

That said, what about all those customs they built with bubble tops? Crazy what they did with plexiglass and huge vacuum molds. And neat to see on that "Bad Chad Customs."

That custom is outstanding. Wow! What an edgy design. Love the bubble canopy.

I think it's a female's Visor -maybe?
By golly, I think you're right. LOL. I zoomed in and while you can't tell if it's a visor or something else, it definitely looks that way. I can also now see a black cap on top of it.
