I took this pic off the owners manuel, which i do have. ![1987 Montgomery Wards mudder project 485385_440180136068283_398788545_n](https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/485385_440180136068283_398788545_n.jpg) this is just a side view of how it is at this current moment hopefully today i will be able to put in the transaxle and put some wheels on the front. sice im putting the gastank in the hood i need to find a different engine. im looking for anything that isnt a twin and has at least 12.5 horse power. i will post more pics asap | |
