Me too...a 5 horse off the garden tiller got me into all sorts of trouble.</div></div>

That's probably how a lot of us got our car-guy bug started. Dad made us a plywood frame/tiller steer/big-wheel tired go kart with an old Briggs too - with Fred Flinstone brakes.

The original drifting vehicle. I remember being sideways most of the time, especially on gravel roads. We all probably learned to counter-steer in these things. It was an advantage when I was 16 and got on ice and snow with a real car.

<span style="font-size: 11pt">I came across this photo of my old cart. This is my youngest standing next to it about 8 yrs ago when we visited my childhood bud in NE Ohio. I believe that is a West Bend 2 cycle on it which was the last engine we ran on it WAAAAAY back when! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] We bought this from a family friend for $10 bucks and was a true barn-find as that is where it was stored. Ahhh, the memories!

What year is that book?

That is absolutely the same cart frame. Anybody want it? I bought it locally for $10 from a yard sale years ago. I was going to do a reverse burglary and drop it back off at the same house in the middle of the night, as a joke.
