TeamCheap's "Hodge-Podge" open class

Really, that looks so much bigger than that.

 

[TeamCheap]

It is wider than a garden tractor but not really much longer.

Wheelbase f/r axle is just 43", it is right around 46" wide(<not zero'd in just yet)

The front bumper which I was working on later today will stick out the front a bit and sunday I'm hoping to get the rear engine mount started which will stick out the back a bit but not to much.

I want good approach and departure angles so climbing over stuff isnt a pain.

That's just unreal to me. I have hard enough time just trying to restore. There is no way I have enough years of life would I get to this type of build. You have my respect.

I got to finish it first before it is really anything.

I was just shopping around for sprockets, chain and idlers and it comes to a whopping $193.

Thats cheap for all that I need for it:
10 =20t sprockets 40p
2 =30t sprocket 40p
3 =10' chains #40
7 =SS master links #40 (one extra)
6 =17t idler sprockets 40p

All that will get me close to having a complete drivetrane.

I'll cut the keyways into the axles before I order all that.
