Another Speedster Headlight Build

Fabed up a new bracket for the Speedster

Redesigned to articulate and turn the lamp

rod on the left has been torched and bent
and the rod on the right yet to be
heated and bent.

Bracket mocked up before welding.

Here the linkage on the right from the

bracket to the wheel on the right.
