Just getting started and here is the lawnmower we chose for our build and of course all we are using is the frame on this mower.

This should be interesting. You are building this as a front engine correct.

yes we are building it with the engine (20HP Vangaurd) in the front and we are flipping the frame upside down and yes it is going to be interesting
finished mocking up my front axle still needs to be be fully welded but here it is.

I will try to change the pictures. I don't know if they will be bigger or not I took them using my cell phone but I do plan on taking many pictures and many different angles

Well ive been looking for a MTD step thru frame for a while and had no luck and a friend of mine told me about this frame. If you look at it once its strip it reminds me of a car frame. So here I am and personally I dont think it is gonna be any harder than any other build actually I think it will be easier. I have been told these super modified/outlaws are harder to build than your normal build though. We will see.

Not really hard Jason but it sure requires a bit different thinking. Which when your used to the same basic builds makes ya think its harder.
