After having the buggy for about 2 years, cussing it, sticking it out in the pasture and doing some other things to it I can't mention here. :evil: :evil: ......I drove it down the road today, :D :D I even got it up to 3rd gear. :) .( did not want to push it to far with no brakes) :shock: :shock: In the past week I have pulled the motor 3 times to change pressure plates and throw out bearings...I just replaced the transaxle with all matching parts and that took care of the clutch problems......Off to bolt the body down and take it for another test drive. 8-) 8-) 8-) ....

Congrats on the milestone.

I'd love to hear mine run or drive the pan. Its all ready to go pan wise, I just don't know how to wire it up to start it.

Waiting on a still day to add some color...

How far are you from the airport? I could fly up and give you a hand with the wires to start it. Perfect excuse to fly,Idon't need a big one.

Which airport?

The big McKinney airport is on the other side of town. There's another airstrip of some kind only a few blocks away.

Hi Cory
Ignore that last post. I don't know what I did wrong that it came out like it did. I just sent you a PM. Hopefully it will come out right.
