Well here she is, been working on this beast for over three years







Its not quite done yet. The gray is only an epoxy primer, I figured I would hold off on paint and assemble it first for some test runs to make sure everything works as I want before I paint. Better wheels are in the works.



Turns out the suspension needs some work. And my clutch pedal needs to be reworked. As it is there is only a 1/4" of travel between it being engaged/disengaged :rolleyes3:

Yes the leather seat is heated. And 8 way power adjustable :cheers2:

Looking at the pics of your rear wheels, I notice that they sit quite far out on the end of your axle. You might want to move them closer to the body of the buggy to limit the possibility of the axle bending there. If you hit any bump or pothole with the wheels so far out, you might end up with a bent axle.

Just my 2c worth

ya, You might want to extend your rear frame out a little so those pillow block bearings are closer to the wheels. But other then that it is an outstanding build I like the sheet metal work and the seat. Looks like it would be more comfertable to drive then that truck in the back ground. :D Three years is a long time , I bet it feels great to drive it. You should get some video of it and post it here.
