This is what I started with many years ago.
I'm redoing my rig again. I know most would have thrown it to the scrap yard and started over. Well I'm stubborn and hard headed. :****: I am trying to do this rebuild on very little to no moneys but we all know that's not possible. This is what she looked like when parked.
My main goal is to move the motor back in the chassis as much as possible. 13 inches is what I have accomplished. Made me some new poly motor mounts. I still need to plate the frame and get the BBF settled in.
4 link the front and bring it back in chassis to help with wheelbase, cause she was a long bitch.
I'm also trying to relocate my radiator to the rear of the buggy, hence why I was asking about radiator shops. I want my radiator to sit in that angle back area. After looking at my options I'm going to need to buy a radiator cause the copper one is far to heavy to be mounted like that. Would this angle create a problem in cooling, Such as cavitation of water
I'm also doing a disk brake conversion on the rear.
I other words I am not good at a build thread nor am I a great fabricator, nor am I rich! No this is not my shop I'm building it in, it's my mother in laws. Please have an understanding that I'm not new to hard work I'm just slow because of money and time. Please give me your advice and help if ya want. Razz me at will I have thick skin, :****:
