    You know there is a reason why the rods, crank, pistons are so much heavier and stronger then a gasoline motor. Of course if you do get it together please video record it and post it up here. There is just something about seeing a motor explode (as long as it aint mine) that brings a tear of joy to my eye:biggrin_25523:

    One question?? What motor does it have in it right now? Be smart research. And what if the drive tires are slick but not rotted? That's more cash. Good Luck man. Hope you at least get somewhere with your project.

    Because it just doesn't add up. With the money he's gonna spend that can be a down on a cheap older rig..Pay it off in a year make some moneyz and done brah.:biggrin_2559: Hey man no one's giving you a hard time..There just telling you the truth. These people have years of wisdom. Maybe you can just make it into a little single axle and race it around town. Or a pickup.

    I had that same feeling about the 3rd or 4th post into this. At first I thought it was a young kid with a dream.
