ordered parts a week ago and a bunch of parts showed up yesterday, sooooooooooooo today is a duck day[cl

ordered the 3 lug bolt adapters to change to 5 lug bolt pattern for the wheels and they are 4 1/2 X 5 inch, so mopar and ford wheels should fit. not 4 X 5 inch like l thought[S

rebuilding the tranny and soon the motor should be gettin' mocked in to line up everything, l can't wait to get this thing going.

Does it quack?
I remember those from when I was a kid. Not on TV, didn't have much of that, but somewhere.

Will it work with just 4 tires? I like it that way.

Have fun with it.
