Project: 'TBD'

Recommended Posts

A nice build Max, does TBD stand for "To be decided"? :D

I like the tube chassis, looks like it came from a dragster.. Which wouldn't be a bad thing :thumbs:

I'm trying to work out in which direction the build is going..

I'm guessing your going for a "Model T tractor" look...

I started as a tubular frame tractor, something a little different? But it is starting to be inspired by the Villiers Bike, there are plans to build a trailer to tow the bike :D

 

love it max hope you keep us updated with the build :)

I'll try my best Niget!

I like it already. :thumbs: Reminds me off the Austin 7 specials of days gone by.

 

That was my first thought when I saw the photo with the bonnet on :)

 

Fantastic work Max, how much fun was it keeping the wheel hub and rim lined up for welding the spokes in? :D

Nice work. :thumbs:

 

I'm interested to see how your taking the drive from engine to trans axle. A type of right angle drive at a guess.

Yeah, there's a 90 box just below the engine :D

Sorry for being slack with updates. However, progress is being made and it now has a bonnet, grill and steering. It is also running a Kohler K181 with a 28mm Amal carb. Belts are hooked up, wiring...well, works? Haha it needs tidying. So hopefully I will have some pictures and perhaps a video of a test drive this weekend?

What sort of 90 box is it as I'm after one my self loving the build by the way !

James

I believe it a Peerless 1050 :D
