[QUOTE="Eddyj, post: 680217, member: 3779"] Weird question, I know, but follow me... Your at the gas station, an inbred walks up and says "Jew build dat?" This got me thinking. Very few people build their buggy from start to finish. I was very close, I bought a tube "chassis" to give myself something to build around. It ended up being more of a jig just to hold parts while I figured out how to set everything up. When it was all said and done I probably used 10% of the chassis, but it got me started. Other than that I did everything alone (to prove I could on a very small budget) then as soon as it was done I turned it over to someone who was more qualified to fix some of my half-assery. So what is building a buggy? Setting up suspension Bending every piece of tube Welding it out Wiring it Building motor Painting/powder coat Interior Giving someone a little direction then signing a check? [/QUOTE]
