[QUOTE="393Bird, post: 8402331, member: 22897"] Most of you guys know that I am a gear head, but most do not know that this has been going on for several decades. Last month I received these 3 pictures from a guy that I had not seen or talked to in over 40 years. These were taken in 1967 in Vietnam. I was in a tractor and trailer unit that worked 14-16 hours a day, 7 days a week, but some how we managed to make this in our spare time. It is a go-cart, that is powered by a Jeep engine mounted side ways. These were taken during the construction phase, and he didn't have any of it when it was completed.

We used the sprokets and chain from a 5 ton wreckerrear winch to connect the engine and rear axle. It was a blast to drive. It was so easy to do wheelies with. Williamson took it out the gate one day, and down to the main road through Phu Tai. As soon as he got going, he met a MP Jeep. He gassed it and almost flipped it over backwards doing a big wheel stand. If it wasn't for that little gas tank, they would never of caught him. . [/QUOTE]
