Hello, am new to the board, would anyone happen to have the forks and front rims for the King Chopper(or Satan Cycle)? Just lost yet again on an ebay bid on a bunch of parts that I was going for just to get those forks, but couldn't justify going over $70.00. I have a bunch of K.C. parts to trade like tires, frame, and others, but will pay a good price for what you have .Thanx in advance, Mike Zaputil

thats going to be a tough one to get parts for. I've still got mine thats missing parts and I've had it for three years now. Its only missing a few parts but I don't think I'll ever come up with them ! A freind of mine paid over 400.00 for a complete kit in box -way out of my price range.

I know I'm missing the entire front wheel & tire, and possibly other little parts (haven't made a thorough check yet) ...sometimes think if we all learn to be resin casters, we can get all of our builds finished! At least it came with the original instructions.

That would be a great idea, theres so many parts needed we could have a network of resin part swapping ! I can't tell you how long I've been looking just for one of the vultures feet . I was tring to make something work but it never came out right.

Thanx all, yeah I know what I'll keep having to do is buy batches of junk parts on the bay till what I need turns up. As for the gentleman in need of the vulture's foot, I thought I had one I could give to you out of my stash, but no dice. This kit is my original one I had when I got it at the age of 9 in 1969, most of it survived pretty well over the years, even managed to save the instructions. As for resin, I asked for some TJ Taxi parts here about a year ago and a very kind man had casted for me just what I needed and would not accept any payment, wish I could remember his name. I know there has been some concern over abusing the good will of this board for other purposes, believe me, that was not my intent. Take care, Mike Zaputil

It doesn't sound like you were abusing the site, mike - If you're looking for parts to trade, this is the place to find them !

Hey guys, I'm no pro buy any means but may be able to help cast a few parts. I'm new to it, and in experiment stage. some of the parts I cast comes out nice, and some of it has to be worked on. But a part that needs a little work is better than nothing at all right??? lol

Thats true - the only thing that may be a problem is the extreme rarity of the parts. If you only have one, someone may not want to risk having it get lost in the mail . but if someone had a couple of spares they'd be willing to donate , it could be a BIG help !

wish you luck. I will see if the Gods are on my side with this one and check with the prophets to see what I can come up with.
