Like I don't have enough "started" projects. Starting with an AITM Dodge CNT, an old KFS short barrel mixer, tires & rims from Rick (thanks for the goodies), and we're off. I had to break out a Paystar mixer because some of the parts were severely warped ( I reckon the KFS mixer is REAL old--I haven't seen it listed before.) Had to modify the end of the resin barrel as it was too short. The KFS kit and the Ertl mixers are identical with the exception of the KFS being a shorter barrel. Anyhow, here's where I'm at.  |

Jerry,
That is a very interesting combination! The KFS mixer has been around for quite a while now. I think was meant to be a copy of the Challenge mixer?? not sure though??
Be Well

Cool project. I like it. The Kfs mixer was a regular item about 10 years ago or so.

Nice combo of bits to make a mixer. Like the idea of the old CNT Dodge for the chassis, you can almost here the screaming 2 stroke joke pulling the load of mix to the site.

Looking interesting, Jerry. I realy need to get one of these Dodge cabs.
One question, would the CNT900 be big enough to handle a mixer?

Yes indeed the CNT-950 & 1000 could be spec'd pleanty heavy for a mixer.
