    Let everybody in.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Oh! Drrrrrrr. I just noticed it don’t have the square tubing in the rear for chain tensioners and it has the old school bearing housings like my racer. Which I’m told is a 1971����*♂️ I have a 72 crazy colt I think it is with the same setup. I don’t think the tomahawks came out till 76 with the superchief? Jimmy Gerber needs to see this machine and see what he thinks. I’m gonna be done buying 6x6s for a while as I’m buying a new truck! So I’ll just chime in on stuff I can no longer buy!!! Lolol
    Thanks guys

    It must be a mongrel. The frame is from a Colt, but the drive train is Tomahawk, maybe the body too. As far as I remember, the Colt is the only machine they manufactured with the u-bolt adjusters.
    Stuck in the seventies- not in the swamp.

    I’ve also been told that the square cornered frames won’t fit into a poly body. Best I can tell by the pic is that it is a square cornered frame instead of angled corners. Learn something new every day.

    This is good info for others, I noticed none of that.
    What I did see is the home made engine mount and the frame did not have the slots for the engine mount, looked on past the rest looking for the slots once I saw the mount.

    You have to round the bottom corners off the frame, then it fits.
