That seat has a strange shape to it too. I actually found the car more interesting.

I knew the minute I saw it that it was a full blown custom when he had the picture of the skeleton hand mirror
The car was a lot nicer.

Re:Another shoulda cut the horns off Bobber 1 Year ago  
I think the only way to make ours look right with a solo sprung seat is you have to lower everything to get down to be able to flat plate over the battery and oil tank. Too much sticks up above the frame rails to seem right (at least up close). My dream is to go right side chain drive which would eliminate the useless gearbox we have (seriously all it does is move the power from right to left for no good reason). Then there is plenty of room to drop/rearrange the battery and oil tank. Make for a much cleaner install.
