Hi, my name is matt i live around lincoln county in kentucky. Im starting my secound buggy and my first one seater. my first buggy was a 2 seater we built from scratch around a used frame and many used parts. I recently bought a frame from tim deaton that was built by predator buggies i cant wait to get it done but i wanna build it very well so might take me 4-6 months but im keeping my 2 seater so i can still ride
