    Howdy all, yesterday i picted up my newest project, some kind of frankinstine buggy.
    it was used as a teaching aid at the local high school, but as they hadent used it for about 6-7 years, they didnt realy want it anymore... so know its mine

    Anywho, its got an early holden 161 engine and trans, but i wasnt to sure what the chassis was, i later found out it was from a toyota crown (Maybe im ment to have crowns )

    Anyway heres some pics, got some work ahead of me........

    that is quite possibly the COOLEST thing i have seen for quite some time, cept for those iceblocks

    that thing would be rad to drive around a padock, maybe get some smaller wheels, so your centre of gravity is remotly close to the ground..............

    get some videos of that thing in action ASAP

    there is a bit of work that has to be done, IE steering and something to sit in, but its first stage of development will get it to drive around first, i dont think it will be going to fast yet, just look at the tail shaft, but hopefully down the track i will be relocating the rear axel, or putting a whole new one in, including suspention!
