Urm, how about a fuel tank?! Surely you can just get one from a quad bike etc? Failing that, if you can just use gravity feed, just bastardise a green plastic jerry can thing!

Get to work! I want video!
thought about one of those green petrol cans
and just place it on your lap as you move.
Decided that the CREATATION is dangerous enough
without the possibility of burning to death.
Hmm.... Will see what we can come up with
after a few cans of beer.

Having issues with being able to start it
and with getting fuel to it.
brakes will be looked at after our
test driver has had a go and reported back.
If he survives of course.


wonder if we can get it to the ring?

Wimp! Just build an open sided box out behind where you sit. The open side faces backwards so if/when it explodes, most of the fallout is sent backwards. Easy - job done, now get back to work!

I love the fact you are going to get the test driver out first, then address the obvious "lack of any brakes" issue once he/the death certificate confirms the obvious!

A colostomy bag would probably fit the image or maybe feed fuel in through an IV drip?

Love that idea. Where does one obtain a colostomy bag from?

Currently the tank is an empty bottle of water.

We also seem to have built up a following in the workshop. Farm lads are pissing themselves laughing at it.

Oh with regards to the brakes. We have concluded that it will be like stopping a 747 with cheese.

We have come to the decision not to tell the test driver but we will supply him with a few cushions to strap to himslef.

It should be ready to roll in about 2hrs.

Pistonheads: health and safety matters. wink

They can often be found in Post Office queues.
