Our sincerest apologies to Lainy and
her folks. We missed their Christmas deadline. Custom
work can sometimes not go as intended. There were alot
more modifications to the bulkhead with this new motor;
the 'skins' had to be adjusted around the footwells
and we can't send the final pieces to powder coat until
they are all put together in a mock set-up. We will
get this sled to you guys, even if we have to deliver
it personally.
| Here's the little
monster motor |
|
| |
|
| Mike cutting
the bulkhead/tunnel to fit the clutches/driveshaft,
etc |
|
| Fitting everything.... |
|
| Now getting the
motor to fit in, which took quite awhile |
|
| He's getting
there, though! |
|
| |
|
| The little suspension |
|
| Riveting the
suspension brackets |
|
| The track is
back from being lengthened. |
|
| Fitting the suspension |
|
| Looks almost
big enough for an adult! |
|
| Modifying the
footwells to adapt to the skins |
|
| Looks really
nice, Mike! |
|
Mock up with
steering post, motor and front suspension.... now
it's off to powder coat.
Mike has to take apart everything he just put together. |
|
Wahoo. Back from
powder coat!
Stage 1 done - riveting bulkhead to tunnel. |
|
| Putting the finishing
touches on the suspension |
|
| Riveting the
suspension brackets to the tunnel |
|
| Suspension and
track DONE!!! |
|
| Motor and steering
hoop are in. |
|
| Front suspension
DONE!! |
|
| Another
view of the cute little mini arms and clutches!! |
|
| We are really
happy with how our seat turned out!! |
 |
| Steering post
and brake line/lever getting added |
 |
| Now the steering
post and electrical. We put heated grips on and
hope this little monster motor has enough oomph
to heat them up! |
 |
| Belly pan and
skins |
 |
And the final
thing: We made a little customized tail flap with
something we thought would fit Lainy!!!
So now we are just waiting on the muffler which
has not arrived yet, get the shocks set, and start
that motor! |
