So this has priority over the xs650 I recently picked up. It is a 4wd amphibious atv from the 60s. It is currently getting panels replaced and I already have a 10hp diesel to drop in.https://flic.kr/s/aHskLS82Wh

I got lucky and found a chinese 186 diesel that had been rebuilt with all yanmar parts. It is a single cylinder, air cooled, mechanical direct injection engine with 10hp and about 20lb/ft of torque.
 
Watching for sure, that thing reminds me of something from Firefly.
 
The link to the flickr album is where I will be posting most pictures. I bought it in rough shape, no engine, missing some parts and a fair amount of rust and damage from being run into things. Right now I am working on the rust repair, after than will be getting the parts to convert to 4 wheel steering while I redo the engine mount, and then it should be about done other than accessories.
