Damn, what a motor!!! Nice find! Someone dropped some change on that baby! I like the porshe style fan shroud, too.
Dont imagine that scoop will live long, when that turbo spools up real hard and puts her on 'er lid!
Congrats,
Larry

I have taken a big leap in the performance buggy department. Wellsville here I come lol. Here is a link to pictures of my new Buggy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 91469&rd=1 This buggy was on Ebay and the guy just happened to live with in 15 minutes from me. Its a project that was never finished. It needs a little redesign however over all its what I have been looking for. BTW my red Buggy will be up for sale. Steve 216-695-0733 |

Yea, It was definatly a rare find. I brought it home for $6500.00 I do have to take the motor down because he ran it with out oil however its still well worth the money. Hes got $10,000.00 tied up in the motor compartment alone. |

I looked at the pics Steve. Pretty cool buggy. What is this long finned deal on the oil lines?

Inline oil coolers. I assume the previous owner put them on because of the additional oil heat generated by the Turbo. |

I figured as much. Probably a little overkill if you have the fan cooled unit. |

Yea I agree however thay are there and Hell they sure do look cool. BTW it does have the fan cooled oil cooler under the scoop (that the first tree branch will take off). Oddly enough he does not have a thermostatic fan control or bypass. |

Sharpshooter I have around $1200.00 in receipts for the stainlles lines and fittings.. Jeff I will be selling the entire turnkey buggy or just the rolling chassis. I have not decided on the motor yet. I just built it from the ground up 2 years ago and only have around 10 trips on it. Thanks for the compliments guys. I was just getting ready to buy a new frame and build another buggy then this came along. |

Stevo thanks for helping me take the motor and trans out. It was a big help. Its a cool way to get to know a person a little better versus an hour or two on the trail. When it comes time to put it back together I will take you up on your offer. Thanks again Steve |
