Making Chicken Salad out of Wheel Horse Parts.

[squonk 39,003]

I had an old C-160 frame kicking around, a well worn out frt axle and some odds and ends. not worth much but scrap. After the steam Pageant last year I thought I'd like a sulky to tow the wife around. So here it is "The Wheel Horse Sulky" Welded up the axle so it doesn't pivot. Took a seat that was on an old Commando. Seat springs out of the mower scrap yard and some well traveled  frt. tires:

Built in foot pegs!

 

 

Wheel Horse sticker adds a lot. Seat isn't great but not bad:

 

 

 

 Don't really know what I'll do with it. Wife probably won't go to the pageant. Might just sell it.

Nice job but you need to add a BIG basket to hold the parts from the fleas!

Pretty cool Mike...just need some arm rests, and a cup holder...to get the full "La-Z-Boy" effect going.

Mike you did good on that one. If we lived close I would buy it so JayInNC could pull me around while I drink frozen Margaritas this Summer

It looks better than this one, and the wife "rides" it. But, she has a basket!

If I keep it long enough, customizations will be a given.

How about a seat belt, and a crash helmet too...for the first annual   sulky races at this years big show...

and they thought closing the teeter totter would make the place safer.

That's what LAPS are for. Wheel weights anybody?

A few years back I built a little chariot for the wife and family to ride on, it mounts on the trailer I used to haul the  .
