Here it is with motor mount and motor and and the barstool. I am going to have to shorten the metal above the carb so the barstool will fit better. tomarrow I will finish welding some of the frame and the motor mount on and ginding the welds smooth then start on the front end.

Jammer,
It looks pretty good so far! What size engine are you using? That stool looks pretty sweet. I wanted to get one of those that has the double rung, but opted instead for what I could get from Northern Tool. Then, I ended up making my own. Keep sending in those pics!! :cheers:
