After two months the work finally continues on the 8x8 tracked amphibious vehicle named ARGO. This time I'm getting the engine & gearbox installed, drive chains cut, gaskets made, wheel shafts with new bearings and seals installed, CVT driven clutch disassembled and reassembled. And a worn down sprocket gets a renewal with a little bit of turning in the lathe and TIG welding. Next time - restoring chain tensioners and maybe some CNC milling action (fingers crossed!).

This 8x8 ARGO sparked the homemade tracked amphibious vehicle build series a couple of years ago that you can watch here:
