Looks good, How much clearance you have under the front beam the way it sits? Tell us about the motor, tranny and everything.
Keep up the good work on it.

i think there is about 18 inchs which seems like a little bit to much it sitting higher in the front than it is in the back hopefully it will set down a little , the motor is a fresh 2387 built by Tim owner of southern buggies tranny is a 6rib with super diff 930 cv swayaway axles dry sump oil system dual 40s dell 4ply V tread tires

Buggy is lookin good, Yankee!
Looks like you found a good driver for it, finally!! She's cute as a button!


Y'all should see that little girl, she throws a fit to take a ride evey time Scott starts one of his buggies! She'll run out the back door if she hears one fire up!! She claimed his two seater as her own when he started on this new one. If you sit in it, she'll tell you ...."Dat my buggy"!!

Kyjr.buggy did that. We saw where Roy had done someones like that, and since we all want traction fronts for our front brakes on a seperate handle. Lookin forward to seein if they stop any better than they did before he cut them.

I have never really felt the need for front brakes. But DVS1 has felt the need for me to have front brakes.

Can't say what I was thinking, sooooo I will take your word for it.
Maybe now that I am going to work I can buy some front brakes.

Any of you ever go down China Drop in Wellsville with no front brakes? That would be a fun one.

Yeah I remember well. I went there once with no front brakes and learned really quick that you need them. When the back tires are locked up and you are gaining speed, that's not safe. :?
