Well its not as good as herzog's rendition but it will have to do. I have the lettering for the no step but that will have to wait till I get some more fast orange.

Way cool! I missed your PM somehow... Looks like you've got the star down though. :cool:

No biggie

My vinyl guy did it in like 2 minutes

Thanks for the Idea though. I was real disappointed in the paint till I saw what you came up with and now I am very happy with it

Well I was able to sneak out and get a small test in for the buggy but not much more the trail riding

Very cool! Did you uncover any issues that need to be addressed? What's the wheelbase and belly height? Sorry if you've already said that somewhere.

belly height is about 22" and the wheel base is about 114"

The only thing I am a little worried about is after about 45min there was a whine from the fuel pump but after I shut it down and we talked awhile when we went back down the canyon it was gone

Things I still want to do is add a skid plate, add a piece of tube to triangulate the chassis behind the seats and add some more protection for the motor

EDIT: Oh I was also ready for a nice quiet muffler after about 20min

Thank to everyone for all the complements and advice

It does not have a lot of trick fab work but it seems functional so I am extremely pleased with the outcome
