First Buggy Project

Postby malooga » 15 Mon Nov, 2010 11:18 am

Hello all
Just though I'd share a pic of my new project with everyone. I've always wanted one of these ever since I was a little kid.
I'm just glad there are a lot of others out there. I must say you guys have built some really sweet rides. Hope I can come close to some that I've seen.
Anyway, I've got one that is mechanically sound and body only has a few repairs so we are very optimistic.
If anyone has good advice for this new guy I'd appreciate it.

Hope ya'll have a great day and looking forward to meeting some of you guys.

I agree, Great Buggy.

Mark your calendar for Memorial Day weekend in Salado, Texas. That's an event you won't want to miss if you want to meet some fantastic Buggy folks. That's the date for our Annual Buggy Blast.

Welcome aboard.

That's only photo I have right now. Took that as I was buying it.
I'll take a couple before we start on it.
Going to video and take stills to show progress.

Hey Bill
I really like your ride.

If you are married, here are a couple of simple rules you need to follow:
1. Have a wife-appeasement plan in place
2. Destroy all receipts: Don't leave a paper trail.

Hey, and thanks for the compliment. I really appreciate that.
