I wanted to know if anyone could tell who made it. Is it hand-cut?

It came with a Hex motor that was blown up.

Thanks.

Could be Ray Kallio.

IIRC, he was an inside gear guy.

It's a Kallio.

 

Bill Hess owned it. Mine was identical but had bigger pans (which I cut to match this one).

 

I had the other Hex motor.

 

Can't imagine how Buzzy ended up with it.

Seems like you're throwing back to the early '80s there. I have a Team Aggressor chassis from around 1985-86 that looks like its the same design center, but mine is not an inside gear.

Later version for sure, the early ones has no pillow blocks as they were bent up with a torch from flat sheet and one piece to the motor box. If this was for 750 rears, it was definitely later as the early ones were for 790s. I had to buy a dozen sets of 790s at Elmsford whenI picked up mine!
