An armor plated electric trike!

[dividebyzero]

I was at one of my deliveries and saw this.I asked the guy what he was gonna do with it and he said he was gonna junk it.It's been sitting a few years and no use to him.I asked how much,he said"a cup of coffee" lol!So, now it's in my garage waiting for me to decide what "gas" motor to put into it lol!.I'll have to find a way to put suspension under it since it sits about 2 inches from the ground.It does need a front fender though,and some 3ww stickers.Along with Howdy's 3-wheel car,it should be a Trikefest pleaser.

You can cruze around on it for holloween! It's the color of a pumpkin.

oh man. I would deck it out like a chariot like in ben hur!
those things were used in places like boeing to get around the hangers and parking lots.
Also used for giant warehouses. I have seen them before.
You ought to charge up batteries and see if it runs.

Well,the area isn't very big.The motor in there now is bolted to the sides.Haven't checked it all out very good yet.Gotta take some part of it apart to find out.No idea on the motor yet.This gives me 2 projects to finish by Trikefest.Hope i can do it.
