Default What's Are Your Other Hobbies?

My other hobby is finding and fixing old Honda 3 wheelers. I have a few of them from 1970 on in original condition which I take to shows around Northern Alberta. My favourite build was to convert a 1965 Marketeer 425 3 wheeled electric golf cart into something I could use off road and on the golf course. Of course it's an army theme. I transplanted a 1986 Honda TRX 250 ATV under the chassis after removing all the destroyed electric components. It was a fun build and fully functional in the rough and on the links. Enjoy the pics!

The pics in the mud was from a three wheeler meet (Trikefest) that I went to in Haspin Acres, Laurel, Indiana last year. That mud isn't normal I may add! The snow pics are from the R&D phase prior to teardown and paint. Yes I golf with this thing!

I like the tracked one, very cool.

If you were an ex Pat Brit you would know what a Reliant Robin was and how much scorn and derision was heaped upon the design.

A few lads in the UK took one and like some of your creations turned it into a militaryesque machine, perhaps it will give you some ideas for a larger machine.

Love the creations, keep them coming.
