Ok here is a photo of what im building right now. Same as a go kart only bigger. Running a 6.5 Briggs 72 tooth rear and 10 tooth on torque converter, also disc brake. Its a 1929 style highboy pickup, only half size. I build all my vehicles now for parade use only. It gives me something to do...
How i do it
I have taught myself to go by the use of my fingers for touch, and the vision i see in my mind. I do all the spot welding, and my brother then does the finnish welds for me.. I also use my brothers eyes to line things up for me, then i keep on going. I have made myself some jigs...

Built these two parade vehicles last year, drove them in some parades, then sold them. I will post some pics soon of the pickup im buildin at this time. This seems to be a great site with lots of info.
Im disabled and blind, but i still build parade vehicles, go karts, mini bikes, and custom choppers. Use to restore antique cars and trucks before i went blind. Now i build what i want and i have no time limit to worry about, so i just have fun now.
