<P>Do you want one for racing or just a liesurely ride? If you want it for racing I highly suggest you build it from scratch, and designed for racing. An old hand car just will not hold up to the beating. I know that from experience. <p>There are annual handcar races in Palmerston, Ontario, and they had their cars especially designed for just that. Sorry, but I have no idea who is running the show up there now, so I don't have a contact number.<br> robsterne@home.com |
