Well I was right, as short as she is Mama doesn't fit :doah: So I'm going to stretch it :thumbsup:

"Help Finny I'm stuck" I think even with the stretch I am going to have to do something with these handle bars :laugh:


The differential is stuck so I'll have to take that apart and see whats up :doah: Think I'll add an engine mount too so I have some adjustability for the belt :thumbsup:

Too bad the tire is all cracked :doah:

I was bored so I went out and cut the body and foot pegs off :thumbsup: I wanted to do more but until I get the diff out of it I cant get it inside and I froze my arse off just doing what I did :doah:

I plan to stretch it like 10 or 12 inchs right under the seat :thumbsup: That will hide the stretch and I'll add some hidden bracing :thumbsup: Yes the body is really nice :thumbsup:
As far as cold goes, I don't see you working outside :eek:ut: as soon as I get the diff out of it I'll bring it inside and all will be fine :thumbsup:

Ah now every thing is inside and the heat is on :thumbsup:
pulled the rear tires off, crazy hubs :eek:ut:


Then I got the diff apart, one of the axels is stuck in the housing :doah: I'll take it to work and put it in the press and maybe I wont need a new one :shrug:

I had to cut the driven out :doah: its a Comet have no idea what though(no pic)

It has a real crazy axel on the front wheel :eek:ut: Spacer goes over it and a bolt goes into each end :shrug:

never seen a hub like that randy,but then again i never really look at any of the vintage 3 wheeler hubs.

are you making new handle bars too or just leaving them.

The hubs are weird :shrug: but I think they will be fine and I just need to put a new set of tires on :thumbsup: I don't want to spend a ton of cash on this incase she doesn't ride it I cant still sell it off and not lose my shirt :doah: I'm going to cut the bars off and put a set of ape hangers on it :thumbsup:
