Here is a sculpture of an old Allis Chalmers that I was commissioned to do.
The rear tires were originally used as spacers under the rear springs of my former whip, The Mother of Violence. I know, she doesn't look violent...but the MoV made Chucky look like a Cabbage Patch doll...
Washers, bolts, and presto! You've got wheels..
A couple of 7/16" allen wrenches make up the rails...
In goes the engine...
I plasma cut the curved shape of the sides out of some scrap sheet metal, and the front grill is discarded tig rod framed by old allen wrenches.
The exhaust stack..
Fenders are on..
And the finished product!
Fabulous wheels, and informative build log
