*the everything from scratch buggy- by voodoo*

[Voodoochikin04]

Almost 2 years later and Im finally posting again.  After several unsuccessful possible trades for Honda vtx's... And sitting for an entire year after a chain break jacked up the clutch rod cover... the buggy is back in business.  Finally gonna finish this damn thing and call it complete.  I have a solid rear end desing that has held up for 3yrs of abuse.  I have a great front end design that has taken many jumps.  Its all GOOD!!  So...time to integrate all the added wiring, round off all the sharp corners and paint the damn thing. 

first 3 pics were after dusting it all off and taking it for the first drive since pulling out of storage.  In the last picture you can see the affects of it getting rained on once!!  everything got surface rust instantly.

Once its painted and complete, im going to attempt to sell it and start a new buggy.

well you going to haul it down to the sand in a few weeks?

[Voodoochikin04]

most likely not... no truck, no trailer, no money, little time haha.

[dsrace]

put a hitch on the caddy and get ya a utility trailer lol

[Voodoochikin04]

ohh boy..  youd think having 400hp should be able to tow small things.. but everything ive read says DO NOT tow things with this car.  doesnt have the rigidity to handle it.

Wellllll,hellllllllllllllll. We're beginning to think you just don't like us.

haven't you ever heard the song horse tailer on a caddilac

When is the last time you read/followed instructions?   

Looks like they want you to have a trans cooler for towing.  Stock tow rate 1000lbs, w/cooler 2000lbs.  With just you pulling buggy it be better than the 6 fat chicks I see ridin 'round in the caddy here.   

[Voodoochikin04]

lmao... oh thats funny.  Im not putting a hitch on my beautiful car.. it would look ridiculous!! lol..   AND if I didnt like you guys I would have been updating my build on the other buggy site over the last few years. lol

Everyone says its 10" under bumper, cant see it.

[dsrace]

you find a ride come down

[Carlriddle]

I'm 95% making the trip.  And I will be solo.  Guess I'm running out of volunteer passengers.

After scrubbing rust off all the a-arms, and various parts..   I decided I didnt feel like doing the frame.  So I dropped it off at the sand blasters yesterday night, and picked it up this morning.  Looks great.  $150....

[Carlriddle]

I sell sand for blasting here at work, lots of home owners come in want to do it thereself.  I warn them, best $100 spent paying someone else to do it.

Looks good, throw some primer on it fast.  Pack a sack get ur but to LS Ok.  Oct 1-5.  I give you a seat for aslong as u want.    Bring a tent or crash in ur car or under stars.
