I think it is a home made version of a challenger.(not a kit anyway) Notice how they made the cage from the original hoop behind the seat? Stock lenth beefed up J-arms with wider main bar. Welded axle to make wider. I see no Challenger parts.

I could be wrong though I am far from expert when it comes to these racing Ody's. My guess is home brew but done pretty good. The way the front shocks are mounted and this car is kind of cool. I never seen that before. Anyone else see that before? All of them were home brew I guess. This builder just made his own parts like the Challengers had. By looking at how the nerfs are done and connected it looks like it was well done.

Regardless that's a sweet looking car with some wheels I really want. Well done friend.

Can you post some pics of your front hubs? It looks different like the wheels are on inside? IDK hard to see...

Thanks guys, I picked this up for $250 from a guy that just had it sitting out behind his shop, said that he raced it ons flat track and the motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) was locked up, I have my eyes on a 600cc kawasaki street bike Engine for it. How well do you think this frame would hold up with a 600cc engineg

Where do you live?

How much for the FL250 Engine complete with all the stuff you wont need for the conversion, ignition wires carb exhaust etc. I need to get something running for the grand kids here.

That kinda has a Kustom Kraft cage look to it?

I'm in oklahima, not sure on the Engine and other parts, I have two complete engines one has a chip out of the piston I also have two carbs, one mikuni that needs rebuilt and a Kei hin which also needs rebuilt, and I am picking up another one in the mail that I bought off of ebay, I'm just not sure what it all would cost to ship and what its actually worth, but i am still waiting to hear from the guy on this other Engine, and that will be the deciding factor if i actually let this other stuff go, so if you wanna just shoot me an offer i'll let you know if i indeed want to let it go

How many wires are coming out of the engines you have? Two or four? Did any of your new engines have the points or CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition)? I se you have CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) stype coil....

One Engine has two wires and the other has 4, that one is the one that came off of it they only had two of the four wires hooked up

Anyone have any input on how well this frame could handle a 600cc street bike Engine, I'm sure there will be lots of fab work, just wanna hear some of your input to see if its worth the work

With no rear suspension I think 600cc would be over kill. Plus a bike Engine is lot and lots of fab work and money for correct parts.

What not rebuild one of your engines? or go stock ody Engine? You will not win any races but you will ride all day long with little problems.

Thank you for the Input big head, I am planning on doing some kind of a rear suspension on the project, I hope I can do some kind of suspension on it while still using the stock rear axle, but we'll see how that goes
