I finally got it outside for the first time ... I started this build about 3 yrs. ago. lost interest in it for maybe 18 - 24 months and then just got back into it. The engine cases and heads have been all machined and are ready for new internals .. hope to have it running real soon.
Engine will be a 1904 cc ... more power than is really needed out here.

Looks good Duane. We used to have a blast off roading with those things. I built a few of them but never painted any of them up that slick. The last one I had I started on for a friend. He changed his mind when I had it about 75% complete and I bought it off of him. I think I got rid of it about 20 years ago.

You put new meaning to Dirty White Boy. It does look like fun. And my wife used to complain about my clothes from the dirt tracks. She says Hypoid 90 smells like cat pee.

I got hurt in the Black ( muddy ) one in 2000 and dont get real crazy anymore ... except in the mud, The steep Hill Climbs and Higher Speeds on Dirt Roads are overwith for me.
Great story the first time I took the Wife out in the Black one, it has a wire mesh floor and there was a pond that turns into a mud run when used ... well it had sat for a few weeks and was crystal clear .. about 14" deep, 20' wide and 200' long. My Wife says she wants to go through it ... So I asked her " Fast or Slow " She says " Oh Fast " ... thinking we are just going to skim along the top of the water ................... We hit it at maybe 30 MPH and got hit by a wall of water that lasted the full 200' ... we couldnt see at all and even though she was wearing googles, it pushed those off her face and washed her contacts behind her eyes ... Once she got them straightened out She didnt stop laughing for about 30 min.
Its a decent Off Road park we go to, they have showers and we bring extra clothing ...
