runs, drives,stops absolutely nothing wrong..
except the plastic shield over the gears and chain was all broken where it mounts and so it bounced around and would hit the tire....

so a new cover was fashioned,

So you can get around the shop a little faster now?

I still want one to ride around on..Faster than a golfcart, cheaper than a 4-wheeler

You're mother is taking out extra life insurance on you right?

Any one want to get in on the bets on how long it takes the cops to be pulling him over in this?

[Tom Courtright]

Oh boy... I found a 5.5 techumsa ohv sitting around...
Mike shoulg be bringing some rollbar material in soon...

[Tom Courtright]

soo...





luckily the power washer had run out of gas before it was parked... 4 years ago, just had a little bit of varnish the flush out of the carb and it fired right up

mounting bolts lined right up, shaft lined right up, the tq converter went right on and even re-used the original end bolt... now to swap out the cable mechanism and it'll be driveable

[Cumminalong]

Now THIS is gonna be funny....

Ya just need to make a decent axle for that sucker so both wheels are powered and you're not just doing a Donny.....

[Smitty]

[Tom Courtright]

I'm sticking with the centrifical clutch for now till something breaks. Then it'll depend on what I can find in order to go 2wd.

[Tom Courtright]

That first cart looks very similar to the me my boy got for free. We weren't so lucky with the carb and fuel tank. Ours sat for 11 years with gas in it! But we're slowly getting it cleaned out. I posted a vid of his test drive.

[Tom Courtright]

I seafoamed the first one. Worked wonders getting everything cooked out. Probably gonna do the same to this one. New spark plug fresh gas,oil change and at the very least clean or replace the filter.
