    You have been such nurturing parents Tosh and Josh. It is so awesome to watch Ralphie’s mechanic skills increase by the week. He’s not afraid to tackle any project. I love seeing such a strong loving family doing “things” together. When Ralphie is older, he will look back fondly on these projects and will lead his own kids to learn to have fun without a smart phone in their hand all the time. God bless you all. 🙏🏻❤️

    That little red wagon's got some pep! My father in about 1957 took a pedal army jeep and put a Briggs& Stratton one cylinder motor on. The way you got it to move is he had a fan belt that went down to a pulley on the rear axle. No brakes, but it would only go about walking speed. My brother and I were four and five years old and could both get in it and ride it around the yard. Of course the turning radius put us in the ditch more often than not. Lol. Your son won't forget these times with you Josh.

    Get the most common set up. Probably BIKE chain. Shorten the brake lever and put a grip on it. And throw some long poles out front for foot pegs. THEN you could also put the brake out THIER on a revolving or day roll back is the gas roll forward is the brake. But Love Ya Guys And You'll get it worked out. I think it's Just AWSOME. Love your ride RALPHIE

      One of my neighbors built a tote gote out of water pipe, wheelbarrow wheels and a lawn mower engine. He got it running but lost interest so he let me and a couple of my ten yr old friends mess with it--what an education! That scooter was my intro to motorcycles in 1959--I have owned over 100 motorcycles since then, a car restoration shop and got some racing experience all starting from that scooter.

    I don't know why I haven't watched this one before today; it is a good one! Love seeing Ralphie "tear into things" with no instructions (just like I do). That's the way to learn. Josh, you and Tosh are doing a good job letting him work until he says he needs help. He will have so much fun telling his kids about how he did his first "rebuild" with Papa Josh helping😀😀😀

    Hi guys, please please listen to an old motocross her and either shorten our reroute the throttle cable it is bouncing up and down and touching the ground end it is just a matter of time before you catch something sticking up out of the ground and it will yank that motor wide open and spend the drift cart around into a high side crash. Really good job look forward to you finishing it for Ralphie.

As for the drift trike, awesome build! My friend Bobby lives in Colorado springs. They go up pikes peak and ride homemade trikes down after putting PVC pipe pieces over the rear wheels. They are nuts! I like yours a lot better. Keep up the great content.

  • @mrjoshua6979
    @mrjoshua6979 2 года назад +1

    This looks bad ass. You should shorten the front bike frame a bit and bolt it as far forward in the wagon. Give it a little more stability and room for ralphie. Plus the further that is between his legs the more chance ralphie gonna catch it to the cahoneys. Looks sweet though.

    @gymshoe8862 2 года назад

    You are a wizard in making EFI parts designed for different vehicles work together, you fearlessly plunge into wiring snarls that would make most men cringe, but you are as innocent as Ralphie when it comes to chains/sprockets. Never mind, its 150 year old technology and very simple once you learn it. You and your son will prevail and it will be a good memory for all. I did the same kinda stuff in the 50's--it was a wonderful time but my dad wasn't involved--he knew nothing about such things. Good goin, Josh.

  • @asshole3569

    Dad reminds me of the old man that had a lot of influence on me.

    You go little kitty! I was cringing with Ralphie's legs sticking out, if he went over a bump or something and his leg caught on the ground, it could cause a serious injury! Maybe that's why the chain kept coming off?
