    That looks awesome! Can you tell us a little more about it. What engine, trans, drivetrain, how many people does it hold, what kind of speeds, etc?

    Hey Mike!
    My Weasel is a 1945 M29c. It has a Studebaker champion 6 cylinder. Standard shift 3 speed transmission. The differential is a cross between a t-20 and Argo Transmission. The differential also has a hi\low range gear. Top seep is 25\30 miles per hour. I have a spare engine that was rebuilt and crated in France in 1958, a NOS Transmission and a NOS Differential... Here are a few shots. You can seat six in the back section.



    Transmission below. Date on box is 7/61


    The differential was crated, but was outside covered with a tarp. When we went to move the crate if fell apart.

    Joe, thanks again for the info. 25 or 30mph seems really fast. I would have guessed half of that. It's cool that you have basically enough NOS parts to replace the entire running gear and man is that differential BEEFY!

    Wow! That looks like fun. Is it just me or did anybody else keep hoping that he was going to go over one of those cars?
