|  Moon Buggy Started
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  Last edited by run2jeepn; 08-17-2006 at 02:14 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.

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.  Last edited by run2jeepn; 08-12-2006 at 10:21 PM. |

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

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. |
