I plan to have it there Jim. Rides are free, but, without mentioning names, I am afraid several of our "full sized" members may not fit between the fenders. 8 hours ago, WHX9 said: Boat missing a battery???

Ed Kennell 38,146 #56 Posted January 16, 2017 Time for an up date.....It's getting close to finished. Still undecided on the decals. Maybe a CRAZY HORSE? 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still need to get an engine and build a clutch. How much drop does a frame flip give ya? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,146 #66 Posted January 18, 2017 Flipping the frame lowers it about 6", but I also cut out the center of the flipped frame and added another frame below the two ends. This lowered the engine about 9" total. The height of the engine dictated the height of the hood, hood stand, and floor boards. The spark plug actually protrudes thru the hood into the air vent. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,297 #70 Posted February 8, 2017 @Ed Kennell Ed does the Big Show allow Drag Racing ? You could make a $ or 2 with the Low Rider. can not wait to see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #71 Posted February 8, 2017 Awesome build Ed. I only regret not finding this thread until tonight. I never would have thought of flipping the frame to lower a tractor. That thing is too cool, and looks like a blast to drive too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
