Default CMP billy cart

Spent Sunday making my girls a billy cart, when it came time to attach a seat the only thing we could find was a seat from the CGT. Girls & Dad had a ball as we live in a very hilly area. Even Katrina had to have a go.

It'll look even better with 16" wheels.

Thanks Bob, LOL. I think your right the only Fords I've owned have been pushed or towed.
Now the kids want an engine on it, cant decide 235 or 292!

Maybe an annual (kids) billy cart race at Corowa?

I would put an English truck engine in it. That way you know you are not over powering it and are not wasting a good engine!! ]

Default Katrina at the Rope

Well Euan nice job, just a thought Katrina looks to be really worried about that rope steering. I reckon you need to add a Chev steering wheel in there somewhere and a chev motor that will really make certain that it has less power than an english ford.
