Southern fried with westcoast flavor. Here we go again :roll: I started on this styrene mess to house the widened sumo axles that ended up under a chevy...I got side tracked & the buggy was left for dead on a shelf....madjones was over a few days ago & we got to talking about southern style buggies....So thanks to Mike I started back to work on the left for dead chassis.... Here is the mock up: http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...rnfried013.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...rnfried015.jpg http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/r...rnfried012.jpg |

Re: Southern fried with westcoast flavor. :lmao: Thanks B, way more tube will make its way into the cage....I just don't trust the styrene with the power plant thats going in :ror: |
