oh boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.


thread just for the buggy! yayayayayayy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


i don't even know what to write about this thing.

it started, as you can see, a bunch of tubes on the uneven concrete side shop of papas house with some DuneBuggy.com spindles we had acquired at some point

i botched and hacked, what i figured and measured out to be, together the same exact front end as a DunBuggy.com car (they had one at Foutz's shop, next door to DouchebagDenton when i raced with him. so i was always over there copying down measurements and whatnot).

beat the fucking pisssssssssssssssssssssss out of it at Gordons Well.........

front end nearly folded off right at where the main tubes (I didn't do a continuous tube front the front of the car to the back. just butted up the front tubes to the main lower "hoop" of the car. like a fucking idiot kid that i was and im still paying the price to this day) connected to the lower "hoop/floorboard". thankfully, it didn't and we caught it before it happened.


somewhere along the line, we had our good buddy/aluminum guy make a sick as fuck body for it..........

thought i got a lot smarterer and had a waterjet at my disposal now. so i made new plate front end and...........did the exact same fucking thing and just butted the front bulkhead up to the main hoop/baseboard of the car.
