I saw these over the week end

I went to an antique engine show over the weekend and this guy had these. Of course I talked to him for quite a long time and found out that he does this for fun and doesn't or won't sell any of them. He is not a member of any forum nor does he advertise at all, he's just a good ole boy having fun!
They will go about 20 mph.
I thought they were pretty darn cool!

Oh man those are fantastic.
I actually just sourced out an old washing machine motor myself (iron horse, approx 1hp)

I also picked up a couple old reel mowers.

I'm using the engines for minibikes, but i plan on using the transmission
and iron horse motor on a little 20" vintage miniture. (boardtracker style-no peddles)

I figured it would make a great bike, with very little invested.
Seeing a similar set up has been very helpful.

thx for posting the pic's
