About 6 months ago my Dad and I decided to start building a buggy.

We started with a Bee Line Pack Rat frame, Powder Coated it Blue and named it Bud Lite Buggy. We have 3 other buggies, but they are Polaris. We have 2 Rangers and a Rzr.

Image

Then we added some 15x4 chevy front wheels, and a polished fuel tank.

Image

Image

Image

Running wires for overhead console

Image

Mounted tractor 3 rib tires..

Image

Next we started to install Rancho Bus 3 Rib tranny.

Image

Shown with stock trailing arms, but they were just on there for a mock up.. We went with 3x3.
We also had to cut out our own tranny mount with a waterjet. The ones we bought didn't have the holes
for the horn arms and cage.

Image

Image

More to follow soon.

that looks great!!! i love that color... you might want to add some bracing to that rear shock so it does not break that upper bolt off. wouldn't want to scratch the paint!!

Great lookin buggy, but I agree with 88, beef up that upper shock mount if its not already planned.
