Looks great man. Some tricky tube bending on those top main bars. It was hard for me to get two exactly the same for the buggy I built. You probably have a few more notches under your belt than I do though!

I haven't been back to work on it since last weekend. My wife says there is more life than buggies!?! I think she is crazy, and so what if the house is leaking..., the garage is dry!

That sure looks like a fun build. I think you may be the first to have 2 cars in BOTM. |

what does everybody think? is it junk? is it good? I'm always lookin for input. We still have the steering to figure out  But I think from there, it should be smooth sailing

| I'll have a price when I'm done! I was actually thinking about building another one either for myself, or to sell. So far, I like it more than my racecar, but I'm sure there will be some bugs to work out.
