projects other than boats

[redneck joe]

got almost two acres, need a fat boy rider that can fit inside a 48" gate

 

[Mc Tool]

Man you are a dork

But ....I have seen plenty of other peeps projects and while sometimes it might not be to my taste I do respect the skill , workmanship and time that goes in to the project . While I might not like the Fiat Tipo shape I am really interested in the power train and the suspension and brakes .

Try a wireless robot mower for 2 acres a Husqvarna might work very good.

It’s a Cobra for me but I like the Healy as well.
There is a Cobra club that comes here once a year and I just drool.

My buddy built a kit car as a real one at this point is out of the question for most people... thing weights 2300lbs with driver and puts down 790 to the tire. Most ridiculous vehicle I've ever had the privilege of driving.

He's on his third engine though. I told him to stop messing with the ford junk and throw a Chevy in it so it'll last more than a month. He didn't like that.

It’s rumored that a guy that lives a couple towns over has an all original one. Not sure if it’s true but they said his car collection is 17 cars and quite incredible so it could be.
