[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 7928, member: 82"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] That's just it, you can get the parts for next to nothing. The Holden straight 6 he said it runs I assume is a “red motor” which is so common over here, well it was. You can pick up a runner for almost nothing from old car. So engine, gear box and dif's would be only a few hundred bucks or maybe a carton or 2 of beer. Then some steel and a fair amount of time. Its amazing what can be built if you have the time and a little know how. And for my previous question about a governor, forget about that. I forgot its manual so you obviously still have an accelerator so you compensate for the power drag. If it was running full throttle the clutch wouldn't last very long![/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
