History Bulgarian Barnfind

Bluto,

If it makes you feel any better... my mom has eaten horse
(she was born in Kiel in'38 if that gives you a clue)

 

Heard it was originally owned by an old guy that was "gonna fix it up someday"

 

Give it till Friday and someone here will have a black and white picture of it running at Bonneville with a scan of the original tech sheet.

 

I'd pull the dead horse and drop a chivvee in it!

 

I've started with worse...

 

Are those "HAMB Friendly" bricks???

 

Paint the wheels red, add a set of WWW's and it's good to go!
But seriously, that's pretty kool.

 

61..... Yes Traditional clinker bricks from a coal fired brick factory

Mac....... What makes you think you haven't eaten horse! Most of Europe still does

 

As many as you can hook up to it... hot rodding circa 100 AD -

Actually sounds like they blew the motor on purpose when they buried it...

 

Bwaahhhaaah!

I just finished reading about that find on the archaeological website, and here it is on the bloody HAMB! Still, it would have to be the 'ultimate' barn find wouldn't you say?

Cheers, Glen.

 

Bluto,

...I know I had some cat& pidgeon from the Chinese trucks when I was in college at Temple in Philly...

 

this is a great thread love the replies but i cant help wondering what wheel bearings they used 1900 years ago.would the bearings be stronger on the one horse chariot or the two horse chariot which would be faster. so many questions so little time

 

the 2 horse typically ran a Columbia 2speed rear...

 

A "barn find" with actual horses.

 

If you do a search, I think you will find current cross reference numbers for those bearings. In fact, you will probably find a tech post on how to convert then to early ford juice spindles and backing plates.

 

Where's Charlton Heston when we need him?
Or is that his skeleton?

 

Crazzy D

I bet he tried strokin the horses and the rear broke off

 

'WOW!' 'THIS WAS BEFORE 'PINKS' tough times bak then.

 

Now,
watch some asshole buy it off ebay and put billit rims on it. or restore it and ruin all the history. ("Gold Chainers!!!")

Think it ran with lions? I mean at lions!!!!!

We just may be loking at Swamp Rat 1!!

 

We holidayed in Angouleme (near Cognac) last year and the market there has a horse butcher and a donkey butcher. We BBQ'd horse steak and donkey sausages.

The horse steak is really nice - tender & sweet. The donkey sausages were minging and actually tasted the way a donkey smells. Not a good taste.

 

Industry rumor mill says Barris paid Jeffries to build that for some Charleton Heston movie

 

Now that's funny

Do you think that if they would have added another pair of legs to the horse that it would have lasted longer?

 

Those rims are donk-size, could they possibly be the OG style?

 

We had one just like that when I was a kid...

They'll have to dig up Boyd in 1500 years to fix it. I KNOW! bad taste couldn't resist!!!!

 

I don't think that one will buff out.

 

just needs some big ol' DONKS...


and lots of chrome

 

It ran when parked.......
