worked on the blade a little more today. Mainly was looking over the front end of the buggy. I Took apart both front calipers, cleaned, greased, cleaned out bleeders, and brake fluid port, and re assembled. The both badly needed love. Both front steering rack boots are warn out . Cleaned out the master cylinder, and bleed out both front brake calipers. I realized there is some grease fittings missing in the control arms and a few other places, so auto store tomorrow to pick some up and replace. The buggy didn't come with headlights, so I mounted a 6 inch led bars on had in a box on both side of the headlight mounts, wired them up, connected a battery quickly just to see if the lights would work and of course they don't. So I bet its a wiring or connection issue some where. I'm disappointed I thought the blade wheels where polished aluminum, but I was wrong they are steel. Still way to much work to do. I'm not going to attempt to drive it until I know I checked everything over that's for sure.
