There's been one of them at both the yearly swapmeets for as long as I can remember. Cool, but not quite THAT cool. $$$

Ill be using 21 x 7-8 tires will be 2 wheel drive, I like using the 3-wheeler as its electric start, has reverse, Automatic clutch, shaft drive , got the whole bike for $100 awesome deal for what you get for that, have cut up the frame will use the complete rear swingarm with a chunk of the original frame, need to make a front axle, or may try to find a junk Quad and use that

made some progress

picked up a Free Moto4 4 wheeler and will be using the front axle, it was too narrow so I widened it 10-1/2" the outside to outside of the tires is 43-1/4" wide

I got some measurments off a real Jeep ( thanks Kev) looks like I will be going a true 11/16 Scale , that makes the body width 39-3/16" with a Wheelbase of 55-1/16" , the seat I have is 36" wide so that works,

left overs after frontend removed

Not mine but this is the type of bike I took the moter and rear axle from
