You gonna start a "Buggy "Build" thread or what.
Where's this going to take place?
:beer:
 
I plan to start one once we start to cut it up....its going to take place at the one and only....JOHNS SHOP!!! :cheers:


For those of you that dont know yet, I am cutting up the 80 and making it a tubed buggy. Got the inspiration from Halfass


This is what halfass looks like...
Halfass.webp
 
I can tell you tear down is faster than the build. Have a plan ahead of time and that will help. Hey Ted I am worried about your axles and running bigger tires. I have some axles you could use. Fyi
 
I'll take some pics of it when I get home, its 3/4 the way stripped in the garage...

Planning on trailering it over to Johns next Saturday morning and that's when Ted and Dave get to start cutting...

how about schedule80 for a name. there is going to be a lot of tube on the truck.

how bout "Holy Crap" get it? do ya, huh, do ya?

Nick--didn't we figured somewhere about 120-160'--wow.
 
Halfass apparently has 140 ft. of tube, so somewhere around there...
 
If you need any Sch.40 piping for gussets or anything I've got access to as much
1" - 2" scrap pipe you'll need.

Can I come? I may or may not have helped with halfass. I also may or may not have chopped up an 80 or two...
