Default Can it be done????

HI, my name is joe and i have a question i hope someone can help me with. I recently bought a 1929 dodge coupe body and intend to make a semi rat rod type of project out of it. What i don't want to do is the same old chevy,ford, dodge etc etc type of drivetrain choice so i thought what could be cooler than tieing three harley motors together to form a V6 harley powered fenderless,choped and channeled coupe!!!
My problem is that i don't know if it can be done because i don't know anything about harley motors. Can anyone help??

Thanks
Big Joe www.sus806@aol.com

Sound pretty crazy man, I would check the internet for truck and tractor pull forums. Those guys are all running multi motor setups. A motor is a motor and I am thinking if it can be done those guys can help you figure it out. Good luck and come back with pictures.

Maybe htis is the place to start: http://www.jaxports.com/


Imagine yourself driving this open top roadster, powered by the legendary Harley-Davidson™ 1200cc Sportster*engine. The unmistakable sound of the exhaust turns people's heads as you approach. Watch them wave and shout as you go by in your unique ride. This car is definitely not for the shy!


With the call of the road and the rumble of a Vtwin, Jaxports has done what others have only talked about for years! The Streetster combines a 3/4 scale '32 Ford Roadster with power from HARLEY-DAVIDSON! Jaxports developed the chassis, suspension, and driveline through years of race vehicle design, manufacture, and competition. These high-quality components are combined with the finest composite streetrod body fabrication to produce the ultimate STREET LEGAL attention getter!! Our unique interior design can allow side-by-side seating for two with an optional seat. The Streetster marries the 5-speed Harley transmission with an exclusive Jaxports transfer case/reverse gear, providing a traditional automotive drive train. The Streetster is available as individual components or packages, with prices starting around $10,000. Cars partially or fully assembled to your specifications are also available!
