Orion is going to



Speaking of which, Orion how's the mower going? Weren't you making it into a race mower or something?

it got put on the back burner some time ago.....just too much other shit to do first. I'm maybe 1/4 done. I have the frame braced, new front axle, front spindles, hubs, rims/tires, and a few other things. I need to do the steering, brakes, and clutch next in order for it to be up and running. The problem is pretty much all of those involves quite a bit of fab work and quite a bit of money. There's also a ton of other little stuff but those are the main things that keep it on the back burner. Hopefully I get the time to start back in on it soon. I'll move it back into the garage where I have to walk around it all the time and that'll get me started on it again probably. It won't do 130 when I'm done with it though because I don't have the motor for that. I do have access to a twin cylinder though that'll get me in the 80-90mph range. I'm starting with the single cylinder though first until I know for sure me or Zach aren't going to die on it.
