Will, put up a post about a buggy needing a rid to texas or as close as u can get it. We have a few truck drivers on here who might be able to help for a fee. Worth a shot.


With that said anybody doing any hauls between Andrews, Texas and Medina, Ohio. Or at least somewhere close to these locations.

I can move a frame but a whole rail weighs too much to lift into the trailer. I would need 12 foot long ramps to roll it in or 8 guys at each end to lift it out. Plus I only go to Emporia, KS.

Do you have a good trailer? I know someone in Texas that might come out for the Stony Lonesome hill climb. If we could get the buggy down there,,,,it's a long shot.

I don't have a tralier... yet. Even though that seems to be a great option. Right now, the best option is to wait till DBN goes on a hual to Emporia, Ks. Then from there into Texas (hopefully). And I will drive to pick it up. But... I would have to see.

....Never in my life have I ever wished I lived on over in the eastern part of the US...

Dont forget, for me to haul that it would have to be taken partially apart & someone has to meet me in Canton to load it up.

Check this out. I dont know how far away from San Antonio but this is the type of chassis you need. You could run the swingaxle trans you have while you round up a bus box & related parts. It has the front beam you need with it as well.

Not a bad start for you Will. Hope its not swing axel, then you just need trailing arms.

Thats a swingaxle torsion in there if you enlarge the pic. Since he's on a budget he can use the swing he has to get that one moving while he gets the parts to go IRS.

Well, I did tell Frankenbuggy I would buy his. So I really dont wanna go back on what I said but I will still look into the the one in San Antonio. San Antonio is about 6 hours from my location. I dont mind the drive though. But If I can't get that buggy down here into here at my location cheaply or at least get it in Texas then I will have to pass this one on and look at that yellow one.

Instigator how far are you willing to travel from Kansas City?

Ok will, sounds like you need a cheep T-trailer now. Either setup you need a trailer. I have the parts to slap one together for you, but then it still needs a ride to TX, lol.
