hate to give bad news but, fun buggy is dead. I went to add shock hoops and my welder shorted out, needless to say I blew right threw the tube. It was the main hoop that it destroyed and it would have taken to much work to fix so I scrapped the entire chassis. Im working on a new design for someone and have switched to brazing since the welder is officially dead so I may resurect the project yet. The whole idea behind the project was something simple I could have fun building, its been anything but.

| its BACK!!!!!
Some new tubing, a little practice brazing and Fun Buggy has been resurected. The pictures pretty much tell the story of the build so far, Sprung front with stock pti shocks and either droop or 1/10 buggy fronts on the rear. I dont have any pics of the flex yet but, the rear flexs amazingly well in droop setup. The paint job sucks but I figure its only temp till I buy a powder coating gun. This is the final chassis design, Im very happy how the suspension works and how the chassis looks (so happy that I kept a bend log so I can duplicate it easily) |
