My dad cracks me up

[WickeDKlowN]

He's such a pack rat. We have so much crap in our garage. We've had to build 3 extentions on it just to hold it all.

Anyway, we have 2 trucks, and a extra motor at my uncles garage. We were going to pull a 302 out of one of the trucks for the 49 F1 we're about to start restoring, but aparently, we have a Police Interceptor(I'm thinking it's a 428 but they made 390 interceptors too I think so who knows) out there that came out of a wrecked mercury my dad got for $50 a long time ago and forgot about. Needless to say, we're going with the 428 instead of the 302 but not many people could just forget about owning a 428 cop motor.

Ill do you one better.. about three years ago I bought a 4020 JD Crawler with the engine seized cheap. I took the head off and freed up the pistons, seems how the head gasket woudl take awhile to get I just reused it

THe next day one of the tracks is slipping, one of the pieces worn out. I take it to my dad at the shop to ask where to order one, he walks off to some shelf and hands me a set of new ones. I was like

I was looking for a box in the garage to pack some crap in one night... so I found an empty one, and my dad comes wandering in.

Dad: "chels, you can't have that box."
me: "why not?"
dad: "it's got my air collection in it."

And he wouldn't let me have it. rawr.

I just sold an old honda three wheeler last month at the local consignment auction place :P

We've still got one, but I doubt we'll part with it. What parts do you need?

Three wheelers ROCK!

[psychoreaper_666]

anyway i need mostly a new engine (185s) (my oil pump went out one day on a long ride and i had no choice but to ride it home, ultimately destroying th whole top end)

OUCH!!!

I checked out E-bay before I sold that 3-wheeler last month just to see what they were going for and I was surprised at how many parts/entire 3-wheelers there were up for auction. That might be the best place to look...

I rode a Three-Wheeler once. This is gonna make me sound like a wuss, but I was scared crapless. I prefer dirtbikes myself. More control.

wimp.

thats why i like 3 wheelers, alot of people are afraid of them. i used to ride dirt bikes but then i got my 185 and liked that i could go more places with it. i've also ridden 4 wheelers but i don't like the way they handle after riding 3 wheelers.

I rode a Honda ATC 110 for years.

Then I rolled it, cracked the left wheel well/mud guard and my dad made me sell it for $200, I think it was.

Yeah a four wheeler has no where near the turning radius of a 3 wheeler... I like riding the wheelies on ours (not front wheelies, but side ones )

I've rolled both of ours multiple times, but they're like friggin tanks and just keep going!

On our older one I was riding up the side of a truckload of silage that was just dumped in the pit and rolled it... it landed on top of me pinning me between it and the cement bottom of the pit. Luckily my cousins were there to help me out of that one!

On our newer one I was haulin azz down a dirt road and hit this pothole and it threw me off course and I landed in a cement ditch and dented the tank. Then this other time I was haulin once again only this time I decided to go off road across the prairie and hit a rut which threw me over the handle bars. The three wheeler then proceeded to roll over the top of me while I did a chinplant skidding stop on hard-packed gravel. When I got back up the 3 wheeler was back on it's wheels and still running!!! It's a good thing too, because I don't think I would have been able to restart it at that point.

Oh yeah, this other time on our newer one I had just got off my go-kart which I was doing some donuts with and proceeded to get on the three wheeler with my buddy on the back and tried to do a donut and flipped it!.

Good times Good times...

all these stories are making me depressed... if i cant find a cheap, reliable engine, my 185 may never run again.
