I am sure that i have said elswhere on here that my trike frame has snapped.

( crappy welds )

Well we was spose to have picked up a 2.9 granada last weekend but it turns out the bloke had sold it out from under us.

So that blew that idea away

but one of my lads is going down to check out a 3.8 V8 Merc I think that will tickle along nicely

I reckon i should be able to just about make 70mph on the motorways with that.

you hanging this one on a transaxle or up front?
my trike s now a thing of the past-too much work in at DP & let down by the so called m8 that was building the frame, perhaps next year-i was thinking of having a go at a cb900 based trike-but someone begged me to let them have it as the replacement for a certain gs400.......

i also have a 280ZX Datsun lurking in my garage... time for a clearout i think.

You could always chop the Micra laughcont.gif

Or get some inspiration from Mark whatshisname, he's building a trike on Discovery Home and Leisure starting (again) on Thursday.
