I got the console bolted in, 1 seat bolted in, shifter linkage not working yet, wiring is done, accept for the coil (lost it in my shop), and still need to bleed my brakes. I do not ever plan on building another ground up buggy, as I get older, ther just does not seem like there is time to do everything.

Good ride today we rode for about 3 hours. I will try to post pics soon. I was just working the bugs out today. I need to adust my torsion up a little, and my tie rod is hitting the first up and down tube on the passenger side. Other than tht it ran and rode like a champ. Thanks for yall's encouraging words, I am glad this build is over.

Here is a video right when I pulled it out of the shop. This was the firstime the engine was cranked, and the back seats were not in. I have since got it dialed in.

No Turkey this weekend. Camping at Piny for the Halloween party for the Kids. But I will be there very soon, and bringing 3 other buggies with me.
