Well a small update, I reworked the cargo rack, stock one was huge and bulky! Chopped out 3 sections, welded it back up. I cut the bars back a few inches where they meet the frame where a bolt would hold it in place. Welded the holes shut on the frame right behind the seat. Also made brackets for the rack, new hardware, cut out the mounts for the fuel tank and put them on top instead. This just knocks some weight off, cleans up the bulky rack, and makes removing the fuel tank a breeze! Have a lot to do tomorrow. I realized the tires aren't holding air! This is the 3rd buggy in a row, I ask do the tires hold air I'm told yes and I take it home and a day or 2 later tires lose air! Tomorrows project is to dismount all 4 wheels and tires, blast them, paint them, fix the dents on all them, slap in new valve stems. With that blast the cargo rack also and paint that. Pics coming hopefully tomorrow.
