proposal, tot rod
I'm about half settled in, after returning to my house in GA: having spent the last three years at Ft Carson in CO.
Went by the nearby scrap yard, looking at possible tot rod materials, for me and my nephew Toad.
I saw a narrowed Ford 9" with wheels and tires, REAL narrow, like for a slingshot dragster: $100. I'll think on it, what a radical start for a tot rod.
Meanwhile, I grabbed a little quad runner, $50, has everything I need for the suspension,. In fact, it's a complete quad minus carburetor..
Also grabbed a wheelbarrow with a flat tire, $10.
For the Missus, a pedal car body, very small, old and rusted, to make into a planter..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

And then a newer model....
