Bryan You might not reconnise the gas tank but it is the one he built for your buggy and had to change out to make your radiator mount. Tim |

That gas tank is a very slick design. We tried to use it in mine just wasn't any room. |

Make sure he puts some tree bars on it. Looks good. |

Tim, I think you may want to upgrade the tires. And maybe move them back a bit, just an idea

Yea it getting tree bars there just the last thing he puts on. I don't know these tires give it the LOW RIDER look!!!! Tim |

OK Just got back from Beeline buggys in Kentucky yesterday and everything is looking great. Tony has already doubled all the upright bars and is working on installing a custom race brace in the front. This thing is realy looking cool to me. I will post new pics. soon. Also thought about the name some more. What do you all think about Xpedition seeing as he already has Tracker and Explorer????? XPEDITION Tim |

What are all the bars that were added for? Hope y'all got a jet motor to push that thing. lol.  -Dakotah/koko |

I know some arn't going to like the extra bars but I like it and theres not another one like it! Anyway I am not planning to be doing major hill climping and I have a 2.0 bus motor that will push 150-200 HP when I am finnished with it and that should be enough to push it around pretty good. Tim |

Man he can do some fabricating. Very cool looking. Curious about the second windshield bar. Wondering if that will be in your way once you get your supension seats in. A couple of connector tubes would look good there too. |

| Post subject: | Re: Tim's custom BeeLine |
No it wont be in the way I have climbed in and out with no prob. The windsheald will be in the bars closest to the inside and I figure the outer bars will protect it from branches. YEA if you can think it he can fab it. Tim |
