Ian 2,417 #151 Posted January 26, 2016 good vidio ian Thanks mate Great looking machine looks as if it will have some grunt! With the gearing and diff lock it should be able to pull anything and not get stuck Well done with the vid Ian Thanks Chris. A bit more progress.. Nigel made a blanking plate to cover the headlamp hole in the bonnet/hood. The fuel tank got a coat of red... A few dents add character And a heavy duty tow hitch has been added 7 Alan, S1g, nigel and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian 2,417 #167 Posted February 18, 2016 Just when you thought Project Horse Gut was finished, stage 2 starts Take a pair of very old steel barrow wheels with bearings and cut the center out.. Once cleaned up the centers were a perfect fit for a Qwakasaki Z200 brake disc.. It's a good job I had two Qwaka brake discs sitting on the shelf.. A bit of welding later the discs were welded to a spare pair of Gutbrod wheels.. The wheels look much better with a clean up and coat of paint.. Soon to become part of the puzzle 3 nigel, S1g and diggerjames reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian 2,417 #172 Posted February 19, 2016 Nigel told us what he's been making in the shout box Got a big mouth hasn't he Dual wheels ?? Nope.. That's what I'm thinking. Another nope.. making a trailer? looks good Correct Koen, but you don't win anything for getting it right other than the smugness of knowing James and Norm got it wrong Now part of the puzzle... A bit of trimming of a large yellow object. Yep, that's right.. It's going to be a trailer.. A rather special trailer too As with all these projects, some contemplation is needed, so Nigel and I put our thinking Cups on 4 S1g, nigel, diggerjames and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
