Andrew,

You mentioned the hoses for the oil cooler and should have gone with solid tubing. I'm sure you know that vibration is an enemy of rigid tubing. You'd probably spend time mounting it with rubber mounts and replacing worn through tubing if it rubbed against the frame or some other part.

Just my view.

Can't wait to see the finished product. I'd love to build one too, but I've got to many projects as it is now. :)

regards,
Bernd

Hi all,

haven't posted in a while because I got fed up with how long it was taking to build. However, HERE IT IS! Pretty much finished. I've taken it apart for painting. Then it's just reassemble and a few odd jobs (wiring, brake line, throttle cable...) and it's done!

Here's a pic of the buggy before I took it apart:



Cheers,
Andrew

Bernd:

Have fun

Stew
