thats so cool, ive always thought of this side cart when i see the movie, and wanted to know more about it. thanks for the pleasure
Outstanding. That sort of thing cannot be made up for certain. Great story. Sounds like the rig was lucky to have found you at the time as you gave it some life back.
The plex-dome seems ready made for roasting a passenger's head under the South Australian sun. Was it a cloudyday-only passenger carriage?
No day was a good day to be in the sidecar. Lets just say that dwarfs would feel uncomfortable in there. You could take a passenger but you felt like a 5 foot person in a 3 foot coffin. Very squeezy.
Depends on whether YOU dress the part, as well! Are you into Bondage, bare Skin, Studded Leather, Inappropriately-worn Sports Guards, and shouting out in a hoarse voice while waving your fist?
with the world in such disaray eating dog food and shiving people for petrol, where does one find the time and equipment to stay in shape like a body builder?
As motor vehicle batteries start to become a rare item, many vehicles would be requiring the 'brute-strength' approach to turn a motor into life. What would using a hand crank starter on a V-8 do for one's biceps? Range Rover Megasquirt EFI 4.4 Hand Cranking Start. Hand starting a flathead (V8)? THE H.A.M.B. forums
a few months ago i saw on ebay one of the yellow and blue ford cop car mfp sedans go for under a grand, it was pretty crap looking, and was a 6 cyl automatic. they said it started but wouldnt go into reverse on the add. i dont know if it was genuine, but looked the part, probably some stunt crash car they put through the caravan..
Storm Shadow, you can check all the specs on: http://www.madmaxmovies.com/ Spent some time on that site yesterday as it happens ( was looking for the name of Mad max's dog in the movie for a bet with a friend. I won, it's "Dog" )
HaHaHa, turning them over, i was thinking the rare thing would be engine oil and other servicable parts like spark plugs, ol fiers etc..
If there are enough sporting goods stores to raid that everyone can wear football pads, I expect there will be plenty of parts stores to raid too.
Now this is great.I was just watching MadMax the other night.I've always liked that rig.Very odd looking rig..In Wisconsin we have a spring/fall ride The Slimy Crud run..The big thing is the Mad Max bikse guys build just for this ride..Neat to hear the history of your rig...Thanks for the story....Bert
So it’s a bit after midnight, cannot get to sleep, all sorts of shit spinning around my head, then I’m wandering what ever happened to the 750/4 trike from Mad Max... nice job @3legs
