a new side mirror costs about 100 bucks from a dealership. I don't know how much your pride in your cars appearance is worth though when you use sheet metal screws, binder twine, or purple duct tape

the barnfind Evinrude outboard powered bicycle, up close with details. Found in the Don Laughlin Museum exhibit
0 comments Posted by Unknown at 6:09 PMmy best guess is that the outboard motor, through a flex drive, operates a reduction gear housing hidden from view by the front fender, but the drive wheel can be seen riding on the front wheel in the above photo, through a cut out in the fender. An idler wheel rolls a v drive belt via a shaft, and that spins the cooling fan in front of the radiator.
this might have been stored since the moment some mom had the scare of her life seeing her boy ride it.
Evinrude seems to have made, or licensed its name to bicycles: http://thecabe.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?16024-Finally-find-a-good-bike-and-its-a-darned-boys-bike&p=79860#post79860

Check out this trailer... looks like a 55 gallon steel drum with a cleaver, come-along, and shovel with a hanged section to get access to the vouminous interior... that is some garage made one of a kind trailer right there! Looking ahead to the sidecar motorcycle of rust and rebar... I think someone is making things up as they go along
that is a stunning design of engine cover
I've never seen a sprocket with art deco eagle designs before... wow

Homemade tank inspired by the Transformers movie... but the tank treads caught my attention, they'd work well in woody or vegetative areas I think
