    1113161424-00.jpg1113161425-00.jpg1113161425-01.jpgWell I got the new engine plate and isolators mocked up and set the engine and tranny in to see how the set up will go in. Can you all tell me the best place to get a belt ? also what are my choices on length ?

    Pulled the front four axles and bearings and front frame section. Got my aluminum plate for my motor mount also. ready to take the upper body to the strippers and then start the fiberglass work at the shop.
    So far all good with it !1105161657-00.jpg1105161657-01.jpg

    1029161635-00.jpg1029161400-00.jpgStarted a rough mock up on engine and fuel cell. Looks like it is going to work out nice but need to lower engine some. But I am looking at making a new engine mount that is adjustable so that should address that issue. I see I need to cut some weld on one sprocket to get the L,R axle out and pull the frame.
    All in all happy with the StarCraft !
    Any ideas or input is Very welcome. Also if ANYONE has a pic of a Factory Racer I would like to see them as I found the factory roll bar mounting holes when I flipped the upper body over.

    Yes and No. Thy both use the lower tub as part of frame But the Wedge has it's own tranny deal. The StarCraft uses a T20 so that is a BIG + !
    The wedge is also A lot smaller in size.
    I want to take her down and build a nice machine but MAN riding it around the yard was a BLAST!!!!

    Thank you Andyman !As soon as I saw one in Matt's vid's I was on the Hunt. I would really want a Max II to mud run and so on But ever since I had m Wedge I always like the older machines. Thy have Style to them ! I think I got a deal as It is all there and just needs some Love.
    I want to put a factory style roll bar on it and redo the body back to Yellow.
    Finding info on it is the Big deal rite now !!

    Well Cleaned the carb and aired up the tires. Got it running pretty good I must say. Ran it out the yard and to the lot out front where we park the rigs for the farm and did some donuts. Has Chain pop on hard turn but all in all it moves out pretty good. The chains are in need for sure !
    Also on a side note : It was Factory Yellow And has filled in mounting holes where a Roll Bar was on it ? And Head light holes are filled in ??
    Plus if you look at the # plate close there is a T Scribed in after the # ??
    Maybe Matt can shed some lite on this unit !
