Most of the hull is still carrier, albeit cut down.
He moved the rear bogie back to improve the landing characteristics, as well as using Stuart tracks which weigh almost as much as the carrier itself and are a bit over-engineered for the job.
He's had it up to 100km/h on the open road, but the tracks were starting to balloon and the carrier road wheels were floating about 2 feet off the tracks.
With the 2 speed Eaton he's calculated a theoretical maximum of about 140 km/h.
It is an impressive performer!
