Re: Huge Skellenger lot. Perhaps the largest EVER offered

ok great!! I hate to say that I hope that you don't sell the lot. Im assuming that a hub to attach the ring gear to the axel needs to be fabbed?

Re: Getting the project started again

Here some pics of the latest progress. I modified the frame to accomadate the pipes. Fabricated the radiator mounts. I made mounts for the water and fuel tanks. I made a mount for the water pump.

Re: Getting the project started again

When you said "cooling fluid" is this antifreeze for these type of engines? Btw love the Snap-on tool box, I don't think Snap-on makes that one anymore? I'm using a combo of water and a small amount of Water Wetter. The box was given to me by my Dad. It's a really nice box but it could us...
