Awesome. I'd like to talk to Busby about his cause the first thing i would do is tear it all down and build it to make it mine. If he would sell me that one i'd still have enough cash for up grades and odds and ends. Anybody know Busby's number? Thanks again Jesse!

This first vid is of my good friend MICKEYMOUSE not the one on here.It was the first conversion that I know of .I sold it to Jeff busby and he sold it to MM.It's a bad ass ride with a 2276 CB performance motor.The second is My Buddy Matt (GA Hill Climber)Mr Burns built that one .And last but not least the last was My wife's I copped a rebel frame when I built it it's just a lot bigger than a rebel then.It had 3x3, built 6 rib, 2276 motor long travel front end combo spindle then I converted it and my wife said YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS ALL ALONE.Now it has a v8 and Kevin Thomas owns it

Gasman I have no time anymore to build stuff and get anything done too.But I will help anyway I can After 25 plus years this is the first time I have really lost interest in riding.All my friends have either stopped riding or can't anymore.You know all these years of no where to ride .Then we found KY There were a few folks that got along with us but the majority looked at us as a threat.I was never in competition with anyone for them to be like they were.At wilborns it got no better.Then folks calling names like kids, folks that never ever need to be calling anybody anything leading the way,Hell folks wanting to fight ,Hell when we rode we might get in a fight but it was always with some one that came to the woods and was against us the buggy riders not each other so that being said I forget very little some I will help with anything but some I would not piss on if they were on fire.Anyone that knows me, I mean knows me likes me or at least respects me for what I know.So you see my point.I have alot of friends on Woodsbuggy thats why I come here.And yes at anytime I know I can be trowed off here (some would like nothing better) but for now I just come to talk to friends.

Rock ive always liked you and never had one cross word with ya, I just ignore the crazys out there and enjoy myself. I always loved watchin the chaindrive guys put on a show, wish you would get back in but only you can make that decision. i hope theres no hard feelins between us two. Ive only had a problem with one person while ridin and we talked about it the other nite and all is good between us now as far as i know. Theres always gunna be one bad seed in the crowd but i always jus try to over look it.

A bus automatic or a Audi automatic will work.You can run it stock if you run a low HP motor like a vw or 4 cylinder of any kind.Wade ran a stock one it held for awhile befor it roasted.My buddy Mac ran a car auto (aluminum) out of a fast back it worked well with a VW 2276

Thanks Rock. So would a built auto bus tranny handle 400 hp? Also I saw where you said you never broke a chain. Thats awesome. Did you have any CD's with big horse power? Did you ever break cv joints, axles, trannys? Sorry about a million questions I just really wanna know what I'm getting into.

100% correct statements

and the reason the "no bolts" was used originaly was because not all parks allow them and the committee didnt wanted to keep everything the same from park to park so there would be no confussion about it (contrary to what some believe it had nothing to do with keeping the chaindrives out, they could still compete even then as long as they did not have bolted tires), however, last year we decided to lift that rule and go by whether or the park allows bolts or not so just call the park or check their website to see if they allow bolts or not, but yes chocollocco does allow bolts

Wilbourns did not allow bolts but the chaindrives did very well there with their non bolted tires.

But would have been at the top if we ran bolts like the buggy was designed for.

When the rules were posted it said no bolted tires.And no 4x4 .Then well some one said we forgot about Mark so they changed the rules .So now 4x4 are allowed just not bolts.The thing that pissed me off was they couldn't change the rules fast enough for a (at the time)non member but me no way.A moderator on the site and Woodsbuggy contributor.Now if the rules were amended to say Bolts ok if the park allows it then that would have been another deal.Marty and Bruce were not getting along with me at the time and they chose to rule me out .The only thing I ever asked was to run bolts if the park allowed it but it didn't happen .Now that's how it happened ,He asked ,Now he knows.it's a little too late
