This just keeps getting better. Excellent work sir, I am impressed!

Thank you toystory_4wd.

Some new parts and some work.

Tell me how that tranny works out. Might have to buy one for my mini monster.

I found it on Ebay, but I don't know nothing about performance. http://www.ebay.com/itm/170983917018?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Some parts are discontinued, like the shift lever and lever housing. I buyed a lever from another peerless transmission and I have to build the lever housing.

Week update...

Here some pics of the advance of this week. Steering damper installation and transmission shift lever housing done. I had already bought a 10.5 hp engine without starter but a friend gave me this tractor today as a gift. Next will be the installation of the engine. A friend bought a boat seat that I think that fit perfectly in my Jeep.

Have you figure out what you are going to paint it? Or are you leaving it as is?

This build make me want to build a Jeep gokart.

 

[greengoblin]

I vote just sand it to nearly polished and clear coat.

Thank you guys. The body of the Jeep is almost ready to paint, but I need to make a hole for the shift lever when I finished all chassis modifications and transmission. I still have not chosen a paint color, all my friends suggest a different color.

Some progress

These improvements have cost me much time and effort, but I will continue to finish it, but sometimes I get discouraged.

Don't lose your spark. That thing is incredible, and just keeps getting better!

Update

Do not think I've forgotten you. Here some pictures of what I've been working in the last days. New steering box for better handling and jeep look and a new muffler.

 

[DaiSan76]

Nice work. I wish I had your attention to detail.

 

[Doc Sprocket]

Did you fabricate that muffler? Nice job if you did! Tell us about the design and construction, if you would.

I buy the muffler online. I did the rest.

I've been working on the clutch setup, front brakes, gas tank and some things more.
