My buddy Dean and I started a buggy about 2 months ago. I wanted to build something that I could really be proud of and represented myself. Ive never been in the military but a lot of my friends are and I have the up most respect for our servicemen so I wanted to build something that was inspired by them. Hence calling it the " Hoorah Buggy". Cant wait to get this build done and get it out in the woods. Going to powder coat it desert tan with the shocks, floor pan, fire wall, fuel cell, seats and bead locks black. The body panels in going to hydro dip in digital desert camo with the dash in American flag hydro dip. Ill post pics as I can and get up the specs as soon as I can. Hope you all enjoy!

Lookin' good man! :dblthumb: Think your color scheme/graphics will be the flashemifyougotem!

X2 on your color scheme/graphics!! Buggy looks great!! Nice looking boat in the background looks almost like one my grandpa had when I was growing up.
 
Yeah I really hope the paint scheme and powder works. I see it in my head but hope it looks good on the surface. Bush Hog pretty sure those tires are your old ones LOL Dean said he got them from you. Love hand me downs on a project like this.
 
Messing with the panels today......cardboard cutouts are great. Dont want a ton of panels but I think this might be just enough. Coming together slowly but surely.
