Nice .... will we see it at the classic?
Not likely at this point, I'm still trying. You will however see it at Niftee Fiftees and then you all are invited to the Buggy Blast in Salado on Memorial day weekend. Hope to make that show a big'n.

Got a little more done this weekend. After stopping at Kermits for some much needed parts I installed a new bushing in the trans in order to run a 6volt starter for the 40 hp motor from Ethan. Got the shift rod shortened and welded up. That was a bi&*Tch to get in. Tie rods are hooked up. The motor is mounted. Just need to run the rest of the wiring to the back of the car. With help from my son this week I should be running down the street by Sunday :dance:

Thanks Ethan. Did you ever talk to the guy with the buggy down the street? Tell him about the Manx club and Buggy Blast.
