been thinking recently about making a car walk, something like a KA, but what exactly would need to be done, and getting the right balance etc?

you could make a fabricated frame to imitate a car with plate loadable pins on the 4 corners and could even have wheels on it aswell I'm even thinking about making one myself now

Get yourself a Citroen ax an make one.----for real....failing that I'd probably acquire some RSJ and get so sort of frame welded up.but it ma actually be easier to get the ax.

Weld two scaffold poles on the back and use it as a wheelbarrow

Engine out, wheels locked up, straps attached at centre of gravity, or as near to as possible and balance either the back or front until its pretty evenly match I reckon.

I think Citroen AX is a good call, they used to have them in worlds / BSM didn't they?. Ford Ka maybe too heavy even with stuff stripped out - not sure.

The gym up in fraserburgh made one recently with a Ford fiesta and it is still a bit over 400kg after stripping everything they possibly could out of it, they reckoned that they would need to take the doors off to make it any lighter.

Buy the fiesta, then take it's doors off.


Failing that, try one of those little tykes cars, I bet there'll be loads with one wonky wheel for cheap about 2 days after Christmas.

Failing that, get some clown trousers/horse fancy dress (something with suspenders (not those sort you dirty bas***ds) and fill the legs with concrete, or soil if you want to play 'the great escape' simultaneously while getting strong).

Failing that, I reckon welding up a rectangle of scaffold with a leg/plate pin at each corner, and fitting 2 straps across the middle for the shoulder harness might be easiest, if not for the national scaffold-miners' strikes of '14. Might be better to fab one up out of hens teeth and rocking horse s**t these days.


New idea - head up to Edinburgh or any other wannabe respectable city centre of your choice, and set up a rickshaw taxi but yoke it up on your shoulders instead. Or give piggyback rides to howling shebeasts if your nearest city centre is newcastle.
