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.

Oh, lol ok

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