Liquidator and Custom
This past Thursday the paint shop got all the body and paint work done. Friday after 12 hours of assembly, I thought I would share a couple pics.
Complete dator restoration (serial 055067M) and then a custom dator racer (liquifire tunnel with repo hood).
Suspension and guts need to be installed on the dator, hopefully in a couple weeks.
The custom dator racer I do not know what suspension and guts I am going to put in. I am not going to racer it in the series, so sticking to particular rules is not necessary. I have followed a few similar threads on the site, sort of leaning toward a polaris 500/600 xcr late 90's early 2000s. If anyone has any ideas, suggestion or parts to sell I am open.
Thanks for all the help from the site on these projects (particularly Brock). When you do these type of projects, the finished product is just as much the web sites as it is yours.

Re: Liquidator and Custom
Not yet. Finishing up the restoration and the custom will sit for a while. I think Hay Days I will look for the donor sled.
Hoping to make the HOF ride but already have a conflict needing to be in Chicago that Sunday.

Re: Liquidator and Custom
Liquidator Restoration is now complete. Well as complete as any restoration is going to be, always some tweaking to do.
Couple pics and then a link to you tube where you can hear her run.
Awesome machine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx71T0sA ... e=youtu.be
