  • I hate this hobby

    I was forced to buy another Max last Fri. The price was right $150. All I wanted was the T-20 for the MaxIV springer. It also had a factory windshield in perfect shape and a factory roll bar. If anyone's interested in the JLO 295, you can have it. Just pay the freight. Just PM me. The top shell is already out with the trash to be picked up Mon.

      I would really like to have the engine. I am trying to piece together spare stuff to make a light duty Attex for my daughter. Thanks!

            Whipper,

            Seeing that Max IV body on the curb makes me kind of sad. I wish I were closer I'd pick it up and give it a good home.

              Don't feel sad about this one, If you saw it up close, it's Junk. The bottom is full of cracks and pucture wounds, beyond repair.

                Hmmm....darn plastic bodies.....That is why I sooo like fiberglass body...

                Either way as long as you got your investment out in parts that is the main thing. I know I would like to find a second machine for parts.

                Funny thing I notice people talking about frames here. My Muscateer has no frame inside except a steel frame for the motor and transmission. The axles are bolted to the tub alone, no frame.

                OH ya....What is a a JLO engine? Mine is a Tecumseh....

                  I'm starting to agree with Whipper. I've just purchased another Argo. That makes three now. The wife thinks I have to many toys now. Three Argo's, an Elan snow machine, a Honda quad, and a Passe Par Tout. I think it's just starting to get interesting.

                    That's a really good start, Greggy. There's no such thing as too many toys, especially if they float!

                          Wow, those were definately not the current nylon chain tensioners on the front of the frame.

                            refering to the pics

                            Anyone see the Brave Little Toaster ?
                            That's what the pics remind me of.

                              What's really sad is owners who let these machines get so trashed out in the first place. If you're not going to drive it that's fine, but for Heaven's sake sell it so that someone else can enjoy it!!! Don't just let the damn thing sit & rot!!!

                              Can't begin to tell you the number of decent, solid classic Jeeps I've seen sitting in driveways or parked in back yards rotting away that owners won't sell because they're "gonna fix 'em up someday" and yet 2/5/10+ years later the poor rigs are still sitting in the same spot, rusting away to nothing.
