My Essentially Offroad Buggy Build

[Retribution]

Hello Eveyone

My original goal was to buy an Essentially Offroad 321 chassis and build my own buggy but, I decided to let Jimmy and his guys build it up after I realized I didn't have a clue. I figured if I still want to build one later it would be a good idea to get familiar with a quality buggy first. So, I loaded up the truck with all of the parts I've collected and drove to EOR. While there took a few photos of my chassis. I wished I had an unlimited budget but, that's not the case for me so, this is going to be somewhat of a budget build.

Here what I've got so far;
Ford 460 Big Block
C6 Transmission
NP205 Transfer case
Dana 60's Front & Rear with 4.10 Gears

what kind of bender are you using to bend the door bars? this thing looks bad ass

 

[EOR MFG]

They are roll bend here as part of our Magnum chassis, but we did lower the door a little lower for Chris it makes it easier to move in and out of.

Drove down to Lawrimore trailers in Falkville, AL and picked up my new 102 inch wide trailer and proceeded to Essentially Offroad to Picked up my new buggy then drove it back home to PA, 2148 miles in two days, ouch.

I hope Bobby treated you right on that trailer? I have bought a few from him and sent him business, he's got a good product at a good price.

Good people, good price, excellent trailer

Jimmy Penner is great to deal with! He runs a class operation and 'Ol Joe ain't half bad himself. I am currently building 2 of these 321's and absolutely love them. Your rig looks great man. Keep posting the pics as you get them. :****:
