    the green is gasser green from eastwood. I built this jeep gokart years ago. its based on an old mid engined ride on mower. I have all the parts to make it 4wd just havnt got around to doing it. but it actually doesnt really need it with all the weight on the back and tire chains

    Got the hood latches done aswell as the axe and shovel brackets and some grab handles made. Im working on the seat latches now and then ill either do the clutch guard or fender light. Also i made some headlight guards like the army jeeps have and they came out nicely. No pics of that stuff right now but im getting down to the end on the details pretty soon ill tear it down and fix it up again. cant wait..

    everything is pretty much done and the frame is painted and back together. Still need to fix up and paint the body . I just made this mini 12" carbine yesterday and the ramrod is done. Things are going great :) I could sell these like hot cakes if I felt like it

    Took it for its first ride today. I have a bit of a problem with fuel delivery. Too much fuel I need a return line apparantly. But works great otherwise. Click the video >

    Some fresh pics :) Works great with the horn button throttle :smile: Iv been sliding the driver seat out and setting it infront of the passenger seat when i drive it. It squeezes right in and holds itself there. its more comfortable to drive than I thought it would be too so thats great :)
