OT, my brothers creation !
hi guys , thought some of you might enjoy seeing my brothers creation , he got a new house this last fall but it doesnt have a garage yet , all he had was a 10x10 shed that he put a space heater in so he would have a place for a winter project, well here it is , he starte3d with an old john deer 110 lawnmower frame and started fabing and scrounging parts , its got a late model 18 horse single cylinder from a cub , he built the duals himself and dang near everything else on it , dual 23" bar cleats out back with smaller ones up front , 4 " of lift , this little thing will pull its brains out , he painted it himself and applied all the new decals the exhaust is a wide glide pipe from a harley , to me it looks like a mini 4020 , i think it is pretty neat and he put an awful lot of work into buildong this little creation , he wants me to put it on ebay for him so he will be able to get a jump on a new pole shed for tinkering in , if any of you are interested in it email me and ill let you know when i list it , just thought some of you might get a kick out of it.

well if i looked at it right , the rear end has a big pulley on the left side , it is belt driven with a variable speed , the pulley at the rear was welded in place to prevent it spinning under the new load of the tires
