nigel 1,876 #1 Posted October 21, 2020 Got a bit bored this week, I had an old disability scooter kicking about and found this old jeep on the dump, so I’ve cut 9 inches out of the chassis cut the jeep up abit, and I’ve got a start to an 8 mph tot rod 7 Alan, Triumph66, pmackellow and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan 1,273 #2 Posted October 21, 2020 Not quite a Tot Rod but a Black Hood Wheel Horse look a like, sort of. Based on a Pride Celebrity scooter bought cheap as a non runner. Info said 6.25 MPH. Larger rear wheels make it faster. Steering wheel in place of the tiller with a dummy V twin engine to hide the scooter steering column. Chain and sprockets from column to wheel. 2 x 12 volt 75 amp battery's so should give a good run. Still needs decals. Only had short test run so far. Photo's of Grand daughter having a play. She loved it. 8 1 the showman, ianoz, Rayp and 6 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #3 Posted October 22, 2020 Another fantastic build Alan, it would look nice with a small trailer behind it with half-a-horse on it. 2 Triumph66 and slf-uk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #5 Posted October 23, 2020 I really like that Alan. I see it's big enough for you to ride round on. And with the box on the back handy for you to do the shopping. 1 Alan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan 1,273 #7 Posted December 4, 2020 Wondered how you were getting on Nigel. I see you have sorted the throttle position. A simple and easy fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
