Tripped while I had a grinder in my hands and fortunately my 80 was there to break my fall. Unfortunately I couldn’t stop the the grinder from doing what they do

You know it. So I figured the best course of action was to buy a bunch of tube and cut about 19 inches off the frame

I have a thousands questions...but will only ask one.
Will you please give a brief back story and or a bit of history on the evolution of how this rig got to buggy mode. The more pictures the better.

The main cage stuff is all done. Now it’s all gussets and stuff. The story is actually kind of boring. I bought it caged and on tons. It had no springs and rollers on it. I put coilovers and 42s under it and wheeled it a little. The cage needed lots of help. When I started fixing, the fixing just got out of hand and turned to chopping and cutting

I forgot the track bar is bent. So I need to address that. I’m thinking by the end of the week it will be out of the garage

Finally got it out of the garage. I love it. Need to figure out what spring rates I need for the rear but it’s good enough for now. Need to finish paint and a few little things but for now it’s time to wheel

It’s so good. The weight reduction helped a lot. Can definitely feel a large increase in power. And it’s still very streetable
