I see where someone on the Samba said it was a Marine item. I'll have to check some websites. I do like the look of it. This one on the red Buggy is actually plastic.cobra!tx wrote:Yes -I want the same fuel cap as the red buggy-I bought a billet door off a dodge but it looks to big-plus i already painted so to late to change now sticking with that style
This buggy has a heavy weight bolted to the front of the beam. One person I talked to who had one many years ago said they hung 2 or 3 hundred pounds worth of tractor weights from the front beam. I guess if you keep the gastank full and along with the weights it might be ok. Dont tell mr Nader we are driving it thoughJack Duncan wrote:That engine really hangs out there, doesn't it? That much weight behind the axle could make a difference in the way it handles, couldn't it? I think I would check it out with someone who knows about that. Hmmmm!

Should only add 5 or 10 lbs. Just some added safety and stability. Like I said I will not be molding these to the body so any stiffness added is a plus. It will also help with water sealing. You'll see as I progress my thought train on it.CoryN wrote:Why do you want to fill them with foam? Lot of extra weight.
I see you dont like to give Wallyworld your business either. It is my last resort that more than likely will have it.Texasbuggys wrote:Hey Brian, try Harbour Freight if you have one close by for the tubs, they are cheap and have a bunch of sizes or also the Dollar Stores.
