Don't shovel the coal fast enough and the Badger tends to slow down.

Another project underway. This is a raider chassis and body with Yamaha front suspension, Polaris steering components and various of Pol. stuff. Cat rear suspension mostly. Motor is yet undecided. Going to try to get a Pol. 400 liquid in it with a Yami Vmax front radiator. The hard part is going to be painting it and not wreck the Vintage eagle stickers.

Dropped a 1980 CCW (scorpion) 440 fan engine in today. after tons of measuring it fit the best. Got the steering hooked up also. forgot to get a pic while over to the shop. Oh and put a pc. of metal plate in the nose to seal off. I think an old Massy Ferguson or 1976 suzuki sled grill will fit nicely, just need to locate one. spent most of yesterday roaming around a snowmobiling junk yard in Belding and at Bronson auction in search of parts.

I think you and I would be a definate threat on junk yard wars! We could build some pretty crazy stuff together... if only there were more time and less work...

I am real green when it comes to this stuff, takes me a while. My brother is the fabricator/inventor. He just turned a ditch witch into a 4x4 fork lift. He also has made a 3x3 diesel powered log splitter out of a cement hauler type mini dump truck vehicle with 3 wheels. Not sure what the dumpers real name was. He needs a job too! lol http://www.lgwheelloader.com/dumpers-sale/site-dumper.html similiar to this.

slow progress Got the motor in the Snow Hawk and aligned clutches. Yes that is a Cat turning into a ice race sled for fun. 116 track and 200 picks is the plan. Looking for a very light rider (indy) to hold it straight for 660' on ice. Hood is going to be painted with a sharks head and teeth like you would see on a WWII fighter plane.
