Mid-Engine Sandrail build

[thaxboyd]

Is that the Scott Smith I camped by and drilled out your carb jets MANY years ago?

Just a quick note for anyone who may be interested.
I ended up with the sandrail and it is up for sale again.

I know I am reviving a dinosaur, but this is the first time on this forum and that is one sweet rail!

I was looking at your build, and I cannot find anywhere that sells trailing arms. I have a hi jumper with the same type setup, but I cannot find anywhere that manufactures them, or even what they are technically called. Where did you buy them, or did you manufacture them yourself?

Thank you very much for the comments.

The particular trailing arms on this car were from the Mazzone donor car that I bought. I have built some others as well for people but these were on the donor car and were already chromed so I put the mounts on my new chassis to accommodate the existing arms.

I'm not even sure if Mike Mazzone is still around but I am sure he would build custom arms if not there are many custom sand rail shops out there that would build them. I've kind of lost touch with many of the companies still in the sand dune related business since I sold all of our sand toys a few years back.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the comments.
