Got some more done this weekend. Got the motor on it, all the controls in and hooked up, mounted the diamond plate on the rear deck, mounted the tool box and msd box, and got the front brakes part of the way together. Not too much left to go, have to set up the rear torsion, wire it, run all the oil lines, and make the rear skid plate. Hopefully I can do all that in time for Stony Lonesome. Here are a few pics:

all the controls:

I'll get some more asap. 8)

We've made a bunch of progress the past few days. The trailing arms are finished, (I'll get pics soon) all brake lines are done, I powder coated a bunch of little parts, and bolted em on. The front brakes are all the way done, operating and everything. We plan on starting the wiring tonight, and probably gettng a bunch of it done. After wiring, we have to set up the rear torsion, plumb the oil system, and she's a done deal. Can't wait to climb in it and drive it for the first time. All the busted knuckles, stress, ditchin buddies to work on it, and all the money will be well worth the feelin' I get when it fires up the first time.

If you're interested, I've got 2 sets of Goodyear V's & a set of 35" Boggers That all need cut. I think I can swing through Louisville to drop em off if you want to make some extra buggy bucks cuttin em.

What type of pedals do you guy run ko ko or what do you suggest hydraulic or manuel? I see a few people still running manuel, A friend of mine still runs the manuel and i know he is running a big tranny and clutch. You may have seen him at D&K his name is adam bray.

Yea, I know Adam. I've rode with him a few times. As far as pedals go, it's whatever you prefer. I just wanted to try somethin different, and it's less stuff to tear up not having a master cylinder and a slave cyliner. And, it saves weight. :D It's all in what ya like.

Haha I have no clue Dave, it just felt comfortable that way when I was having the buggy built around me. I like it. :D My other buggy's pedals were all close together and it sorta got on my nerves. I made this one as comfortable as possible.

Got a bunch done today. Dad wired it for me, all that is done. Thank god, and Dad. I put the rear torsion together, and put the final touches on several other things. We did get alot done, but ya can't really tell by looking at it except the wiring and the spring plates, so I didn't get any updated pictures. I'm waiting on my stub axles to get the back wheels and everything on it. I'll post pics when it's a roller. I did get pictures of the rear arms though, for you guys who've been wantin to see em.
Here ya go:
