Well I got to thinking (I know bad idea to start thinking) I parted a 1000 because a bad clutch and one of my buddies wanted the rear end to do a cast iron conversion so I sold the rear,motor,and gauges well I wanted a super but couldn`t afford one so I thought why don`t I build one and thats how it started....... Doesn`t look bad mocked up

Bigger Tires and wheels and I got the cross member cut out.

Picked up a great running 16 horse Kohler
Here is a vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVxVblRepzI

Got the frame extensions made and mocked up.

Got the frame extensions welded on and some black paint on them to keep the rust away.

Jed,

I`m using a cast rear with a super pump.

Did you change the reduction gear in the CI rear to one from a super?

Sure did.

I am finally posting an update.

Well I got a rear end,all the hydraulics ,a dash tower off a 1650 ,lights,and a great looking gas tank and firewall .






Got the dash bolted down and the hydraulics and wiring hooked up this evening.
Hope two get the rear in sometime this week.

Got a peice of 1x1 in. square tubing to rasise the fender pan and already welded nuts on the inside for the fender pan to bolt to.

Heres an update on this thread.
Got the Super in the big garage.

Started working on the Cat 0 3pt hitch.I got the spots marked where I was going to put the new collars ,but the 1 in. hole saw gave out so i`ll have to get a new one.

So I started working on getting the fenders mounted.
Got the square tubing welded to the frame and started welding the foot supports on.

Finished welding on the foot rest supports and drove it around for a bit then I stuck the BIGGER tires on and wow!! does it feel different sitting in the seat .Now to build the Cat 0 and save up for new tires ,wheels and a super front axle assembly.

I think its going to look mean with fire stone 26x12x12s and V61s .

Here is what i`ve been up to

Well not to much going on with the super,But I did get me a tunnel cover for it

Well guys its been awhile since I ve done any thing to the super,but I got the front and rear tires and wheels for it today.I also got a super front axle for it(still got to get spindles) and I still got to put it in I just stuck a set of old Murray rear wheels and tires on it so you all will get the idea of what it going to look like.

Enough talk heres the pics...

Guys I finally got the super front axle put under it and all I have to do now is get some tie rods and heim joints and I ought to be ready to roll. I get some better pics later but these will have to do for now.

Got some tie rods made and got it put together and all I can say is This thing is AWESOME!

Pulled the front wheels today packed the bearings,and gave it a bath .Took a spare rear cover in shop class and going to get the top link mount cut out of some 1/4 in. steel.Should be ready to roll in a little while.

Looks good jed
