BOBWhite Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Looks like a lot of weight to be moved by a 210hp 3208 Also what a muffler! I guess you wouldn't want hot exhaust near the back with the fuel. Looks like a giant and inverted VW Beatle muffler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67RModel Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I have seen one of these in person before. It would be completely worthless for anything other than what it is now. They have super deep gears and a very low top speed. They have to move a lot of weight but an airfield is completely level and no need for a lot of speed. I guess it could be used as fuel truck on a big construction site but you would have to trailer it everywhere because the top speed would be too slow to take on major roads and highways. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Ha ha 210 hp that’s about all I have and mine I guess that’s what the 3208 is versus the 3408. Thanks for that and yes off-road use only…. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many poor VFD's in rural areas received these as excess Government vehicles and turned them into water tankers. And have turned them over in ditches because everyone forgets water is heavier than fuel. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
