Moon Buggy Started
 
4 Attachment(s)
Well if anyone is counting. I have now started my 3rd Tuber. I was cleaning the Garage out and then I just started on a Moon Buggy Chassis. I will be finishing Project Ramrod Thursday. I might have time to weld up Project Skinny and this Moon Buggy also. The Moon Buggy is 11.5in long tip to tip and 5in Wide. This is what I think is going to be my Comp Rig.

So what do you think? Is there anything you think I should change before I start welding? I want some fresh input. Thanks guys;-)

Here is what I just got done a couple of hours ago. I should have the other chassis welded up by next week. I hope.:roll:

Awesome! I love both of them....

run2jeepn 08-11-2006 01:15 PM

Thanks everyone. I hope I can keep these thing coming along. It's hard finding time to work on them.

i really like that second one man that thing is bad!!!

somedude 08-11-2006 07:11 PM

What's the height on that thing? I wanna build a rock buggy but have no idea how big to make it.

rckjeep 08-12-2006 10:06 PM

looks awesome, I'm not a big moon buggy fan but that looks good. God I wish I could work on mine. I'm itching like I got rash from __________'s mom. You fill in the blank.

run2jeepn 08-12-2006 10:18 PM

Thanks for all the kind words. I'm trying to keep all my Designs K.I.S.S... I know it doesn't look just like a 1:1 but Most 1:1 Moon buggy's like thta run a 2 link set up and a Track bar. Now who in the world would want to do that at this scale. Once it's painted and the panels are on it wheel look sweet. I'm thinking Sliver Cage and Yellow Panels. Like this one. Actual this is the Design I stole from mostly.

Got some more done today. Looking pretty good. You can see how big it is or should I say how small it is.

Just trying to figure where I'm going to mount the links on the Moon Buggy Chassis at. Any Ideas?

Last one.

Mabe around where the box shape is like the main panel spot. On the outside of that or along the low and high bar of that.
You should make a bisnuss.
