Ok, Material all come in and went and picked up my bender yesterday I'm ready to start. This is going to be the first one of these I ever done so it's gonna be interesting. Going to use a murry wide body chassis which is a 47 inch wheel base. 6 inch wheels on front and 8 inch on rear. It will be powered by a vanny V-twin and a 90 degree gear box. Sprint seat and center steer wish me lots of luck. More coming. Larry

OK, finally a little time for a update. Been welding the last 2 nights and keying up everything. Mounted gear box and run chain. Now to finish up steering and mount hood which is a new Toro. Next will be the brake system which includes EC front brakes and a 12 inch rear rotor. To go fast you must slow down to collect checkered flag LOL. I have to take next couple days to service our mowers to race this weekend so back with more news soon! Larry
P.S Jeannies camara is on the blink and she has to figure out how to thumbnail pic's for a better look. Bare with us.

Sorry so long been working on it at night and sleeping in. I installed clutch and gearbox. Made chain guides and covers.Ordered stainless steel brake lines fuel lines, fuel pump and seat pad yesterday. Going to order carb's from EC today. Have to go to hardware and buy bolts to finish brakes. Then it will be time to build bumpers and nerf bars. Hope to bust this thing off this weekend!
