    The strange little Jeep thing

    I am trying to locate two rear wheels to match the two that I have, this will help with several issues I am having up front. They are 22x10x10 from a hammerhead 150 The wheels will look better if all four are the same size and this will allow me to install front brakes.

    The strange little Jeep thing

    I stripped the rear section of the Par Car golf cart clean and started measuring. The original idea was to zee step the frame and put the original body back on it. But the wheelbase grew almost nine inches in the rear. I considered moving the crossmember forward some and shortening the swing...

    The strange little Jeep thing

    I was in the stock room the other day and saw this golf cart that I had stashed away a couple of years ago. I had put it away for a future project, and started collecting parts along the way. I knew it would become a gas burner but didnt know what that would be. I bought a Hammerhead 150cc...

    Music - What are you listening to?

    We worried about Russia and the USSR back then, didn't really know about Irac or Iran. We kept an eye on North Korea, because they captured the Pueblo and wouldn't give the men back, should have blown them away back then. But nothing like today it's coming from all sides now.

    A wave from Tennessee, Hello

    Random (non-Jeep) Shit You’re Working On....

    Thank you, sometimes you cant tell with the written word. It dose look like it came out of a spool gun. He was using ⅛" filler rod and that is a really big filler rod, it gets messy quick. I am going to get some ³/¹⁶ rod and practice now that I have a machine in my shop. Thanks for the comment.
