    You are one of a kind! I'm really awed by what you are doing here and the reason you are doing it. Keep it up! I know you are as excited about having this so Brandon can ride with you as he is about having it to ride. Ya know what... this makes me even MORE proud that you got the Big Block, you DESERVE it!

    Thanks guy's,I still have a lot more to do to get it ready but the worst part is behind me.There is alot of work that goes into any machine that has to be modified for the handicap.I am trying to do this on a low budget,Maybe under 3 gran.I also want to thank Tim at adair argo for donating the tires and wheels and plotthound for selling me some of the axles at a great price.

    Thanks mike.I still have to make the rail for the seat to slide on so that the seat will swivel and slide out the back far enough to transfer into.Then make the roll cage and modify the laterals to fit him.

    I had to pull the trans back out,It started leaking on the main shaft seal.I tore it down and found a bad seal and 3 bearings that needed replacing.I should have done this to start with but i thought i could get by with out tearing it completely apart.I should have know i wouldn't be that lucky.lol.I got the parts order and should have them the first of the week.I was surprised how easy these trans are to work on.The hardest thing about these transmissions is getting it apart, Other than that they are very simple.
