I purchased a new knock down frame today. I went after a Berrin Cruiser, but when I arrived all he had left was Warriors. He had a fully welded of each setting there, and I took some measurements. I decide for the diffrence in price I could add the 18", to make it a Cruiser. I have done this to a warrior frame once before, but lost that buggy in a fire. I plan on this being a fall winter project, when i am not coaching peewee football. I will post pictures along the way.

I will be looking for your pic's . Where in West KY do yo live ? I am from West Tn and was curious about where you ride ? I have been out of the Game for about 5 years but rode at LBL alot back in the day.

We live outside of Murray. We ride at LBL. Just got back home from there 30 minutes ago. We ride about every other weekend. I am not going to take any parts off my buggy until my other one is all welded up. Trying not to have any riding down time.

I'm in Morgantown KY not far from LBL . Lets ride

Hi-jacking.....We are riding at LBL on the weekend of Oct. 23. Some guys are going up on Thursday.

Thanks for the lift,
Chris

Where did you say the weenie trail is?

Since hurricane Ike took down part of my shop I have not worked on the new buggy. I finished our little league football season last week. I have been working on the shop ever spare minute since. I have increased my shop size on the rebuild. It will be 24' x76'. It want take long to fill it up. I am ready to start setting the new trustes. My old buggy is still raring to go, so if any one is riding at the turkey area on Sunday let me know.

My buddies have changed their mind somewhat......They are only wanting to ride on the 23rd, it is a Thursday. I have some other friends that ride there about twice a month. They LOVE to climb around the back-side of the bay.

i was kinda worried about the welds,are u welding over the rust?and a stick welder

The tubing is all new, it does have surface rust from sitting in my shop for a year. I have both a stick and a mig welder. I like to use the stick to tack. As far as the welds, they will hold. Right now I am just tacking it all together. I have built 2 other frames, and modified one other. Compared to some die hard hill climbing buggies it will be heavy, but I mainly trail ride. It will be light enough to climb any hill I want to climb. It will look alot like a stalker 4 seater when finished. The sides are taller than most buggies, that makes it look big.

Keep up the good work,,looking forward to seeing it finished.

I am assuming the square tubing is just for a guide? It will not be a part of the finished frame correct?

I hope yall enjoy the pictures, I always enjoy looking at the buggy build pics.

Thats an awful long roof. Plumberbills was somewhat like that when it buckled. Add a cpl braces like this if you were not already planning it. Just my $.02
