Little 6-Wheeler Turns Heads

Little 6-Wheeler Turns Heads ATV S When Bruce Carter takes a grandchild to town on his 6-wheel MTD garden tractor people notice The seat and rear end of a second MTD are attached to the rear     “They enjoy it and anyone who sees it wants to know where I got it ” says Carter The concept is simple and was born when a shaft on the MTD’s mower deck failed Carter had taken it to his son Shawn a troubleshooting mechanic for an evaluation     “He told me the mower deck was shot and not worth fixing ” said Carter     The 14 1/2 hp motor had plenty of power and the 7-speed transmission worked fine Carter decided to keep it for his grandkids to ride However his son had a better idea     “He had an old MTD that no longer worked ” explains Carter “He cut it off just ahead of the driver’s seat and welded a steel plate between the 2 frames to make a 2-seat 6-wheel garden tractor ”     Carter acknowledges that the solid connection makes the 6-wheeler ride rough “I have a seat belt on it and the grandkids don’t mind the ride ” he says “They just have fun driving each other around our 2 acres ”     Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Bruce Carter 210 Garfield Ave NW Twin Valley Minn 56584 ph 218 584-8123
