It has all those holes and looks like you could turn it a bunch of different ways. If you lift it up from where mine is ,it hits the motor. I saw them grind down a couple fins on the back to use it in that position. It will go down one set of holes on mine and looks like it would clear the...

Thanks Charlie, Maybe with a little luck this thing will actually run someday. :)

New 6.5 Harbor Freight motor and a Comet Torq-A-Verter Cost with a year warranty....$355....enjoyment ...Priceless.LOL! I will get more done tomorrow. Hopefully

Yeah Luke the parts add up. But not doing anything was sending me to the hospital several times thinking something is wrong. It was $400 a pop each time ,and I went 5 times. So doing this keeps me sane and so far I haven't had time to worry about my health. Got a little sore but am so busy...

Ok ordered a Jackshaft. It ought to be here in two days. That go cart place got me my TAV in two days to my door. So my front tire shipped from Amazon today. No telling when it will get her. Got plenty of time to clean and paint parts. Moving right along. May go broke and have to come out of...

Yeah about December when you are digging out your snow related gear ....We are still mowing the grass. Got my Torq-A-Verter. Would have to mount the motor way over to one side to have it line up. Will have to get me a jack shaft kit for sure. Poop!

Ok while I'm waiting on parts, I'm getting a few other things done. I cleaned up the front drum brake and got it painted. Looks brand new.

Not sure either one of us can afford it. I'm not even close to being finished and I'm at about $475. Custom doesn't come cheap. LOL!

Found a couple cool footpegs off an old scooter. They are in pretty good shape. They flip up if you fall over. Have to wait on everything to see where to put them. AAARRGG!!!!

Got my Fab friend to snap me off a piece of 1/8'' plate for my motor mount. Till I see where the Torq A Verter lines up, won't really know where the motor sits.

Thanks Luke. Now I'm sitting here all anxious for my parts. Still have lots of stuff to clean and paint, but sure wish my parts were here. LOL!

Not meaning to hurt your feelings, but there isn't a big market for snowmobiles in Texas. For some reason our once every ten years snow, doesn't last long enough to ride one.

I told him to save his money and I would sell him this. He could ride it to work and not have to worry about those pesky streets. Ride across fields and peoples yards. He could probably save some time on finding a straighter route.

My brother in law rides the one I built to work with the motor and then pedals home for the exercise. I think he has lost his mind. I thought the pedals were in case it quit or something,not to actually ride it like a bike. Guess everybody has different ideas about exercise.

I'm already wondering if this 6.5 motor is going to pull this and your thinking I could move it with my legs. Pretty funny. I did cancel my membership to the YMCA. Lifting this frame a bunch of times has given me all the workout I need.

Got the seat bracket on and its about all that is left to weld. Will finish grinding the welds and it will be ready to paint. Hopefully. May have to rent a crane to hold it up while I spray it.

Well most of the welding is done and got some of it ground down. Need a few more flap disks. Did get the red paint off the forks and that looks better. Still working.

Sometimes you do something just to do it. Even if I don't ride it. I always thought of the things I built as sorta art and entertainment mixed.

I'm glad they don't. There would be dune buggies and dirt bikes galore if they did. Its better not to let them on the beach. Those sand dunes are super protected.

Ok just ordered one of these too. When the parts get here, should be fun.
