Project Ideas Wanted
Permalink  
 

I'm looking to make something out of an almost new "Dirt Bug" Minibike and whats left of an old go cart. Mini bike has a small but new motor with a centrifugal clutch and the go kart has a the rear disc brake and crude pivoting hub steering. 

Yes, I realize I could sell it for scrap but I'd like something different to put in the back of my truck than the usual old bike or Coke cooler. I really like the stubby belly tank idea but I've seen some cools pictures of motorized Bumper Cars (some were plated and road legal). Lots of Red Flyer Wagons too! Anyone have an old fiberglass body from something? No Barbie Cars or Barnie-Mobiles please. The last picture is of a fiberglass pedal car that would make a good belly tank, it's on eBay for a "Buy it Now" for $59 plus $200 shipping....anyone going to California?

Basically something my grand children can use....when I'm finished with it!

Wolfman, that IS cool. Just goes to show though, there's no such thing as an original idea, lol. Where'd you find that anyway?
