Post by: shaun86chevy on June 10, 2014, 10:45:25 pm
Hey I'm Shaun this is my new build for the 2015 season. It's an 80's mtd central park. It will be a "george Herrin special" copy. 12hp flatty 700 peerless ec clutch and axles ect.ect.ect. it will be pretty slow as I plan to use a lot of the best parts.

First look

Cut out the deck halves and tore it down to the main frame pieces and scrubbed them real good

Then I did a little mock up to see what it would look like (kinda). I will start reinforceing the frame and building the dash support soon.

If you copy George's right, it won't be slow !!

Rooster I meant like the build will be slow cause I'm using expensive parts and funds are slow.

So I got a little done today. Mostly just the free stuff since I haven't got any parts yet.

Got the deck halves tacked in place.

Cut the seat bracket down.

Cut the front end even with the rest of the frame and welded it solid.
