Pullstart 62,902 #1 Posted March 30, 2022 Anyone got funky stuff that don’t make sense in their barn? Here’s an ARCA race car. I think it is complete, minus the transmission. At the time of racing, it was sponsored by a company who is no longer in business. The owner (of the sponsor company) is in prison for cocaine running, embezzlement (against his own company!?!?) and who knows what else. 6 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sjoemie himself 3,068 #12 Posted March 30, 2022 I think this qualifies.. it's a Rasant Wanze hillside mower. Mainly used in vinyards to mow inbetween the vine rows. It steers like a tank and is powered by a 2-cilinder inline petrol engine. It has front and rear pto and was equipped with a front sickle-bar mower. Currently it doesn't run, all the tires are flat and the rust has set in. This will be a 'getting it running and assessing the damage before restoring' type of project. 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
