720nut Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 (edited) Tom we got home around 10 pm Saturday, got the tractor, what a trip, I'll have to tell ya about it some time. Also met Jack Cobb in New Philadelphia Oh. another very nice gentleman, just sorry I didn't have more time to talk with both of you. Always a pleasure meeting someone I've only spoke to on phone, It's what makes this club so great , for the most part great people Wiz, I was lookin but ended up building another pulling tractor . First picture is tractor I bought and second is new tube chassis everything is going into. This is my love/ the fabrication part of anything I attempted to build, and of coarse the finished product Been slowly selling off a few items to finance. Original plan was to build a 4 wheeler like Stephan did only different sheetmetal Edited March 7, 2018 by 720nut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I could come up with something to work it up or just set and nail the throttle a few times. Did I ever tell you that we got close to 50 milk crates full of taters, Llama manure really worked 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiz, it's a modified mini or as our local club calls them, Zingers not sure how or why they call them that. Allowed up to 2500 CC bike or car engine, 6ft wide by 8ft from center of rear axle to farthest point forward, 1400lb with driver Was considering orange but son wants his orange and I don't like being the same as others, granddaughter says pink or magenta, she has a way of winning out. This was our Blown SBC, it is magenta, bubblegum pink in sun light changes to purple violet after dark under lights ( I built it from ground up also ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
