Project 69

Check all your grounds too. I have had issues with bad grounds putting a ton of resistance in the charging circuit killing alternators. I always add more grounds now. Extra engine ground, extra chassis ground from battery to cage/frame.

Will do, more grounds never hurts. I did notice that the new alternator was constantly at 14.8 volts and I just thought that it was the new alternator overcharging but I might actually have a problem other than alternator. Kind of piggybacks on what the Chancegoodman was saying too, overloading due to too much resistance. I guess the body is coming off for the 69 millionth time.

I feel like you're a god dam national hero with cat like reflexes to keep up with the car going 69 freedom speeds.

We did 190 miles last week, the buggy did great and the OEM alternator held up. Great weather and great time with friends.

Washed it and finally took it home. Now it gets to be garage queen and go to the mall. Good news is I don’t think the wife wants to ever ride in it anymore. You see what happened was, well she came for a ride with me and I got little too excited and sent it little to fucking hard, this subsequently resulted in a wheelie and you get to imagine the rest.

First cars and coffee in the books, it’s officially a show car now. Went to get doughnuts with my son to the local doughnut hole where they have a car meet every Sunday morning. And shit, got a little too excited leaving and might have sent it little too fucking hard again that resulted in a wheelie but this time the passenger was much more excited about the experience. I’m thinking that I shouldn’t be allowed to drive this thing on the road anymore

Sir, your logic is backwards. She needs MOAR WHEELIES

Decided to finally add a fire extinguisher today. Better late than never I guess, anyway, after test fitting multiple places I settled on the rear of the car.

What a princess.

i am so in love with this thing. maybe even more in love with it than i am in love with ur m#@$%@#%#@.

you should totally chrome that roof rack. then throw it out on the freeway at 69mph. then bolt it back on, to give it that "still a little ghetto bug" look. hahaha
