work in progress
« on: June 11, 2007, 12:15:01 am »
This is what ive been working on lately....







This is going to be my racing mower for the summer, or untill I can get up enough money to finish my MTD BP build. Its going to be built with only parts that i have already, exept for some safety stuff.

The engine is going to be a briggs 12.5 I/C quiet,  and its gonna have a peerless 700 with the live axle set up.   These are just pictures of it with some of the parts layed on it,   so I could get an idea of what it might look like.

i like your clever use of that signpost as a front axle....the only problem is i dont think it'll hold up real well...
Gotta love a good 'ol Briggs Flathead! :thumbsup:

Its not a sign post, its part of an old engine hoist. Its alot more thick than a sign post, you can see it better in this pic......
