Help me pick a bike to build into a chopper!
Ok so here is the goal (just wanting to add a king a queen seat):
Now I'm looking at 2 bikes that are both hard tails and seem to have solid engines (ones a evo and other is a iron head).
I like the reliability and power of the EVO, but Ironheads have a cool nostalgia as well. I could go either way and be happy.
Either way I will need to:
Paint
Add different pipes
Add King/Queen Seat
Change to Springer Forks
Change oil tank (If I pick EVO)
Change Handle Bars
Change Tank (if I pick EVO)
So here are the two options I'm kind of leaning towards that seem to be fair..
Option 1: New Build Unfinished Evo (Asking $4k)

Option 2: 1970 IronHead (Asking $3.5k)

Which would you guys pick as a base to help me get as close to my goal as quickly as possible.
This is my first build >> so take it easy on me if I'm missing something huge that needs to be done
Thank you for the comments and pointers!
