I started this project when I saw a post about US cycle carts. As I have twin grandsons I thought that I could build them the billy cart that I always wanted! One day when walking through my local Bunnings in Hawthorn I spotted 4 wheels that would be the perfect size and axles to suit. With these in hand I had no choice but to begin. I love Morgan cars and as they are largely built with timber frames I decided to creat a 1:2 scale of a 1952 Morgan, plans and drawings of the original car were hosted on their UK website. With these in hand I popped back to bunnings to buy materials and some new Ryobi tools. Many hours and trips later learning new skills such as welding, timber bending and uplostery, the cart hit the road. This year we are taking it to the Red Bull billy cart chanllenge in Melbourne not to run down the hill jumps but in the build competion. I am just finishing the electrification so that it will drive under its own power.
Hello,
Here is a copy of the plans I used based upon the 1952 Morgan, you can see more build images on facebook.com/SRB.Morgan.52
