The Bullet proof, Indestructable, Off Road Pedal Car.

Looks good so far.
Thats a nice long solid weld.
The frame sure is strong enough.

Yeah its one strong frame.

Yeah Those pedel karts at TSC are $200 buck my dad bought my brother one and the steering wheel broke off so i made a new bracket for it and the steering wheel has not broke of yet but the new bracket is alot better than the old one.
I dont realy care for TSC pedel karts i rather build one.

Yeah it should hold up tho.
Whats the thinkness of the steel?

i was wanting one from TSC. but id rather have you build one for me. haha

Looks good. If you had a bike you could make it chain drive, then make mounts for a horizontal shaft engine.

If you were in Va, than I'd do it for hundred or two. well I might have, but that would be kinda weak spot as bike chain isn't too strong. Plus I would have to buy a clutch, sprocket, and chain. I figured I'd just use what I got. Plus the belt can serve as your clutch with an engine.

Bonus! the engine can act as a parking brake for the pedal part. Just need a way to lock the clutch pedal for pedal operation.

I was thinking of just having it as a drop-on type deal, as an option. So you could use it with either engine or pedal, but not both at the same time.

Yeah I was thinking just he same except use belts instead. All I'd have to do is mount the engine, attach the clutch pulley, and go. If he wants pedals, just take everything off and attach the pedals back on and go.

Rofl, I love your thinking, well thought of

Nice welding by the way. Your a better welder than me.

Lol! I ain't that good. Yeah now I can put a 4 point suspension on my tractor.

I am working on one today but it wont be unloaded for a couple of days as there is other things I need to film that I haven't had chance to do yet.
Life gave me some lemons, so I've had to deal with that.
All will be revealed in the video...my tractor has not been touched since my last video

OK everyone. Last update as it has been finished. I'm going let the pics explain. Cruses at about 5 MPH.Not shown is the ATV fenders we added on the back later on. I have one happy bro. He's now taken over the rest of the work by customizing it the way he likes.

Making the brake a input shaft? Good idea! I like the build quality man.
