mq basher build

Post by planb »

we kicked on with the mq paddock basher over the weekend, thought i might post some pics of us removing the body, using a snatch block, winch, dodgy tree and an old dodge truck.

we rebuilt the old case dozer as well, pictured here with out the blade, which we had off on the weekend to fix.

the tyres were fitted to a short bed toyota stout that was living out its days on the farm, which my mate (on the right looking stupid) bought a couple of years back.

we turned up and found the stout (complete with terra tyres and 6.1 gears)

the dozer, which had been living in the swamp for the proceeding 9 years

the dodge truck, which ill post a pic of but the file size is to big (anyone want to resize for me ?)

pretty cool looking tyres, a bit small, but will be perfect for the mq.

its running a 270hp chev (marine block) mated to the og 4 speed

and whoever built those wheels had rocks in his head, but they sure make the truck look wide !

plans for the mq are to build a simple pan/firewall/cage and drive it, nothing fancy.
