I have built many recumbents my favorite being tadpole trikes,
I started liking 4 wheelers and bought one the other day, I thought I could find it's make and model on Google in minutes but nope,
I have had such a hectic weekend I haven't checked it out well or taken pictures,
I did find these pictures on CL of a car bike just like mine,
Mine sadly has a custom seat that is about a foot higher than stock, that's getting axed tomorrow, mine is missing the front bumper and top but has 4 fenders,
So anyone know the make and model of this one?
It has 3 speeds, I wonder how hard it would be to up that to a 5 sprocket?

It's not a Rhodes car. Looks nice.

If it's 3 speeds with sprockets, not an internal gear, it should be pretty easy to upgrade.

I knew is wasn't a Rhoades bike, in some ways I like it better, IT's made well and I wonder what it is called.
Yes, the "3" speeds are 3 stacked sprockets, I still havent had time to putz with it my hope is to swap the 3 speeds for 5 or more off a mountain bike to get the better gearing to pedal this thing better,
