It's called the Stallion, by Thoroughbred Motorsports near Tyler, TX.

They also own Motor Trike, the company that makes and sells Trike conversions for most bikes.

My ex-fiance works for them.

More info please

shit i wish i knew more about it. judging by the photo it looks like it is from the 70's-80's

More info please

It's a custom, built out of an old side car and powered by an old HD 45 flat head. The timing is about right, early to mid 80's. There was a full story in Easyriders back then. I got rid of all my back issues years ago though.

Sherwood Grocery, I live about a Mile and half from there, my personal shop is right behind the boat storage off the highway. My dad has all the Euro crap out in the yard. What were you doing up in my neck of the woods. I've seen that thing around Whitesboro, that's where I twist wrenches. Very odd looking.

My dad's place is off of 901 north we went to Cyndi's for breakfast then stopped at the store to get some Milk and drinks and then headed back down to dad's

My neighbor down the road has one. ODD, but definately turns heads.

did a little research on them and it seems they are powered by the same 2.3 from the ford ranger, most likely using the same transmission too

[Silverback]

I think it's the 2.3 from the Focus and the Focus transmission if I remember correctly from when they built the prototype. They could have changed it.

judging by the pic posted in post 14 i would bet on it being the ranger setup, due to the rwd style transmission

[Silverback]

yeah looks like you are right. It is the same engine though.

The Duratec 23 is the 2.3L DOHC engine that Mazda built.

The 23EW (FWD) was in the 2003-2007 Focus, 2005-2008 Escape, and 2005-2009 Fusion

The 23NS (RWD) was in the 2001 Ranger and B Series Mazda, and now used in the Stallion.

*EW means East/West configuration, NS means North/South configuration (thought that was kinda cool to note)
