My weekend is Friday & Saturday....have to gather up all the materials to finish our barn siding; continue bush-hogging before the field grass gets away from me; rebuild the decorative water feature in the front yard; get the oil changed on her Silverado....I know there's more but I'm already tired! :shifty:

Marty, congrats!

My weekend projects consist of planting new flowers/bushes, installing bumpers on the Wrangler, getting the house ready for family that will be here for the kids' graduation, and sneaking off to make a list of projects to finish while the wife and daughter are in Florida for almost two weeks.

After almost a year of not making any new bodies...this should be productive ;)

Depending on the weather I'll either be doing things outside, or inside. I'm hoping for inside. Taking care of the outside is the only thing I don't like about spring. Rain, please rain. :lol:

Just a Q for you nhdungeonracer What class do you pull in I've never seen a onan 16hp? or 20hp? in a old wheel horse before well I think it looks like a wheel horse.

Onan? I don't see any Onan... ;)

Yes, it is a Wheel Horse. The model is a Lawn Ranger.

That's actually a Briggs 18hp L block in there. The frame has been reworked (ie-lowered) to fit the motor under the hood and not have to alter it.

We run a class called 8" Superstock. max weight is 750#. You can run any Briggs motor up to 18hp (no modifying other than air cleaner and pipes), you have to run 8" wheels with turf tires that you can cut and shape the way you want. You can modify the frame quite a bit, but have to maintain the stock wheelbase and run a rearend from a garden tractor. Oh, and in this class, it's belt drives only... :banana-rock:

OOOPS my bad I have two Suburban's a ss 12hp and A onan 16hp both are belt drive HI Lo trans I use to pull in what was a modify stock class.
The crank and the piston had to be stock but any cam and you where allowed to play with the carb but the frame had to be stock no mods allowed to frame except for to add weights.
Front tires no smaller than six inches and we had to stay at 10 inches for the rear and only cut tires no tractor type allowed so I used a set of atv for the rear and cut them a little.

They didn't run to bad but the club fell apart so now they just sit and collect dust for the time being.
I might get them out and dust them off one day. I still start them up every now and then so I don't ruin the motors from setting.
