idn, one would have to be an a$$ hole to do that. anyways...what do you think?

The world is crawling with a$$holes, and 99% of them have internet access.... 
I think the bike looks...... like you got alot of work ahead of you. but it's got potential....
You should find and post a picture of what you want the bike to look like when it's done.... just to satisfy my own curiosity.

update-
i now have the crank case in 2 parts, but the pistons are still frozen. so i poured marvel mysetery oil down from the bottom of the pistons and set the engine with the cylinder head facing down. i hope it works. what shall my next step be? i know once i get the pistons free that i need a cylinder bore, and oversized pistons. then what is the next step?

You might have to get slightly medeveil on them pistons. Use an old hammer handle(with the head cut off) as a drift and beat them blitches out..... they are pooched already, so you got nothing to lose.
Once that's done, you'll have to take the cank into a machine shop(find one that does 2-stroke rebuilds, re-assembley is an exact science) to press the crank apart to get the rods off. New bearings, and crankpins if needed(probably will be) and then press it back together. Who ever said 2-strokes was simple, eh?
