Title: Mini jeep on ride on mower chassis
Post by: rog8811 on April 17, 2010, 12:36:27 PM

I have been puting a build log together on my website, rather than loading it all up again here I thought I would post a link to the build then update this thread as I update the web page.

So this is where I am up to at the moment ::)

That's very neat looking. I've got a Wheel Horse chassi plus a 10hp motor.

Might just have another project that I don't have time to do.  :doh:

 :proj: bits again.

Took a quick look at your site. Nice.

I woke up to rain today..... as I haver no desire to get the jeep body wet (welding shop too small for it all to fit under cover) I am here posting a progress report rather than modding metal.
Yesterday I made a start on the scuttle, the dashboard is nearly ready to be fitted...... that's it, end of report.

I had to build a shower room in my house which put the jeep on the back burner for a while.
This w/e I got back onto it, the red oxide was a quick dusting to avoid rust whilst it was languishing untended in the garage.

I have now removed the original seat and the steering so that the new body sits in the right place.

I had never considered the idea of making it road legal, I think I could do without going through all the hoops that it would involve.
