Let's Talk Cyclecars

You picked a good one. Are you making progress?

 

Yeah, but I’m using a Ford flathead V8 with a rear mounted rad. Going to look more like Petro Shekhter’s interpretation of Richard’s GN JAP. Hoping to have a running ch***is by the fall.

I built this one. It's more of a Cyclekart than a Cyclecar but it is a lot of fun.
The frame is built out of 1/16" wall 1"x 3" rectangular tubing, and the front axle is 1 1/2" Dia. 1/8" wall tubing. All the rest of the parts are pretty much go kart parts except the 17" Honda motorcycle wheels.

 

Zigster, those wheels don't look right. LOL

 

Haha! I’m going with Ford’s wide five wheels front and back.
