Cool project me and my kids made.
It really is cool or should I say it cools. My kids and I made this cooler racer. Let me know what you think. Not everyday you can say you see a ice chest with a 6.5 HP motor.

Re: Cool project me and my kids made.
How old are your kids? Is the cooler for juice boxes, soda, or beer?

It holds what ever you want. My kids are 2,6,11,13. They helped with different things when I needed another hand. They are pretty proud of it. They picked the color and the number 6 since there are 6 of us in the family. Last edited by rchavez101; 09-10-2011 at 09:59 AM. |

Re: Cool project me and my kids made.
Here are some pics of the build. I actually built 2 frames. The first one started to bow since I used smaller tubing. I then built the 2nd one with larger tubing and a cleaner design. My welding skills got extremely better from the 1st one as well. It was better welding with the thicker tubing. There is also a video of my neighbor driving the first one some where in the mix of photos.

I have not been able to find one. I guess that there was a company that orignally made the torque convertors but went out of business. I guess the new company that makes them doesn't make the covers. I may be wrong but have not been able to locate one. |
