What's better than a 4WD wheel horse? Two 4WD wheel horses?!?...well almost

[meadowfield 2,619]

Some of you may have been following my latest 4x4, inspired by Bob Rock and a few others. It's taken a while, but today I finally fastened the tin work on and borrowed my sons C-121 hood - (sorry Ewan), its still also still 4x2 for the pics and video - I needed the tin work in place before I finished the idler and 4WD select/difflock.

 

Seat is almost the right height, just the housing to tidy up and springs to add.

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the obligatory video

Great video!

Is it front heavy? Never feels like it wants to nose-dive?

Nice!!! But in observation mode, is it just me, or are there some wheel lugs missing?

How many do you need in the shed?

 

Easy to figure that one! There are seven days in the week, four seasons in each year.

 

Do the math! 7 (one for each day) x 4 (the seasons) = 28 4X4 Stallions. Let's not be ignorant!

 

By the way, GREAT HORSE!

Doesn't feel it, there's plenty of potential for weight at the back

Fed up of putting the wheels on and off, so running on two per for the pics

That'll take some time to build them all, but number three is on the drawing board

Thanks!

Hey Andy,

Thanks! Great to have you back, it gets better. Despite breaking it this morning, I've cracked it and made another video :D

I'm 39 years old and I don't remember how old I was the first time seen one of these. You just reminded me why I've always loved these machines and why I'm gonna rebuild my 1045.
