  • 73 EB buggy

    This is the current state of my what used to be clean 73EB. I have linked the build up page from another bronco site because right now I am in the middle of moving from Dixon to Winters and my computer amd bed are all that is left in the house. Once I get all set up I will post more info and as soon as the second floor goes on the new shop (25x45) I will be able to pull the buggy out of the shed and get started again. Hope you enjoy the build up and if you have any questions or coments please post them up.

        Thanks and yes it is alot of work but should be well worth it when done. But right now I have a new old house to spend a few months on and about 30k in parts before the buggy will be pulled out.

        Daddy4zack~ Yes adding to a cage is no problem at all. One thing I would like toi check out first is what kind of smitty built cage you have now. Alot of the ones I have seen really are not designed for off road use let alone a good roll. You might want to think about selling yours to someone else and have a full cage built for your rig weather I do it or not. I have rolled hard in an EB and the only reason I am here now is because of a well designed cage. Keep in mind that a smitty built might be fine as is but once you start adding to it you change the load and pressure areas of the cage in a wreck.

              Hey Rokcrln, You might rmrmber me I bought the bumper and the rack from you. Well I took your advise and got the tube bender and a welder and started building stuff. Here is a link if you are curious http://classicbroncos.com/forums/sho...t=56938&page=3
              Your rig turned out great can't wait to see it on the trail.Thanks for the good advise I owe you a cold one. Chuck

                Your cage is looking good. I am glad you went with buying your own set up, Not that I would'nt have helped I just know you will like building things your self. I have now moved to Winters and have a larger shop and more room to work once I get a few things done around the house. If you need a back seat I have a nice flip and fold that you are welcome to. Let me know.

                  Yea, kevin that seat might work great until I can afford the PRP I would like to buy. I will pm ya. Are you opening your own shop or just wanted a place to work bigger then the garage. The wife and I are talking 5 acres in Placerville so I can park all the rigs in a barn and have a place to work. Thanks FM
