we started by stripping the car down. We cut off everything we feel we did not need. If we did need it, what the hell, we have a welder
This is what we ended up with. Small and compact, but with enough power to run a small sized city
We then added the deck. From there up the framework will all be wood. The idea is to make a modular for transport.
Rick then moved the controls upstairs. Here you see the likages for the gas and break. The belt goes up to the steering column.
This is how the men will be powered. Off of the drive shaft. In taking the drive ratio, and the tires into acount, we figured about a 60 inch step would be right. Thus Rick went at a 2/1 ratio with the drive sprocket. Ever see a smaller driveshaft without looking down?
The stering column. Big deal, but I did it. so I showed it. Nice.
This is the shafts that will power the legs when complete. It is an inner and outer shaft that will walk them. This weekend we should have them mounted.
