I picked up this FG buggy body over the weekend, and bought a 65 pan off hoosier, and am set to begin my new buggy project. i'll be blasting the pan at CDN auto rest in surrey this weekend, as well as begining construction on the 3 \"lift kit( square tubing around the pan} and rollcage system. this is my first buggy project and am totally open to advice or suggestions if anybody has any input. No front beam so if anyone has something, or has thing spindles i am interested. keepin ya posted...

july 30 update-

the body went to matt today for finishing sanding and high build primer.

the 3\" lift has been cut in half lengthways, a pie shape taken out, and rewelded to achieve a 2\" rake ( 1\" at the front, 3\" rear )

the front beam is assembled and painted with clovacoat 3000, bulletproof paint/ hardner combo

the pan is finished being welded and is gettin ground down, and made all pretty like, then a coat of paint or powder???

soon come
