I have been wanting to build a boardtrack racer for some time now but the only thing standing in my way was a cool engine. I had one of those kits off of ebay and well it was fun it wasn't what I was looking for. Too small, a two stroke and it didn't look right in that much frame space. I was on craigslist searching around and I found this badboy! I traded a huge clinton 12 hp engine for it, it was to big to use on a bike anyways  It's an old wisconsin engine with an external magneto. I'm also wondering if I can somehow use the old peerless three speed I have out in the shop on this too  I think this will be the perfect engine for my build, now to find someone with a tubing bender so I can get a downtube made up. Here it is with some forks and half a frame against it. The tank is coming off as well all the sheet metal and I'm going to look into getting the fins removed from the flywheel
