.As I couldn’t find the original chassis ( must have used it on something else) I’ve had to use a later type. Ive 5 chassis’s hanging in the store all the same and are 5 inches longer than the Ranger and the front axle mount is different so a bit of head scratching and a cuppa out came the chop saw.

Got a couple of bicycle brake levers from a scrap farm bike. Bit of a mod to were it fitted to the handle bar and connected it up. After drilling a hole through a 6mm set screw to thread the bicycle cable through. Hit a snag here. The lever not being straight fouled the handle when pulled right back. So I shortened the lever. Finally I did away with the R clip that held the chain to the location pin. Threaded the hole 6mm and secured the chain. Might throw some paint at it sometime. Also see if I can find a straight steel lever to fit. Maybe not pretty but it works and it cost me nowt.

Dug this out from the storage shed and thought it would make a little winter project, I’ve got another one somewhere in bits so more rummaging when time permits. A little challenge to build the pair together for next year’s shows.
