Can we see some more pics of that neat opening hood? I'd like to know all the details. Thanks.

Saw that FiberJet is selling a couple of molds on eBay... Looks like they are in the process of closing.

What, else, more yaking... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00317.jpg The view was great. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00315.jpg In all directions. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00324.jpg Even "Bill the Cat" thought it was nice. http://img.phot...

Ah, now this is more like it, a neat dirt road. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00309.jpg Hey, that's our destination. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00313.jpg And, here we are! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00316.jpg Here's a pic for Lee. http://img.phot...

Still on pavement. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00297.jpg Now, we're in a small canyon and dirt. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00303.jpg Here's the left turn to the top and the fire lookout. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00304.jpg And, just in case we...

Once we got past the main turn-off on Hwy 33, here was the first of two "locked" gates. Pretty hard to get around them, huh? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00293.jpg The second "locked" gate. Pretty funny, huh? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v443/BIQ/DSC00294.jp...

My friend, Michael "The Manx Maniac" Cates, just about 35 minutes down the coast from me, invited me for a little buggy run as his right seat ballast. The destination was an old fire lookout tower about 100 miles from his house in Ventura, CA. The run was mostly pavement, but some nice &qu...

And, some more... - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Just follow the tracks, pay no attention to those clouds over the mtns. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01925.jpg See, we follow the rules, and the leader. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01929.jpg Went into arches p...

Here's some more from Kev... - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - More stuff- Just little splashers, nothing RBC worthy. If Kenny comes, we'll run Kane Creek. 40 to 50 water crossings, depends on the year!!! Here's a few more. Sunday group break http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01918....

Maybe making a "re-fit" kit including 1) the "fiberglass inner lip" for the cowl section, 2) the inner molding for the reinforcing (not knowing what that actually look likes, maybe just some "ribs" for adding stiffness), and 3) the headlight mounts? Everything would nee...

I think they will be there. The year Bruce had his lower body surgery (hip, knee, whatever, I can't remember) he made it there and I felt guilty about making him hobble on his crutches over to my truck to look over (and authenticate) my "project" buggy. He was a real trooper. So, I have to...

But it IS!!!!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01909.jpg I confess that I'm the only one that had a problem with this hill. My stock trans with 31s didn't pull as hard as I hoped and it stalled in the middle of the hill. Luckily, Kyle is an old hand at Moab and calmly talked me do...

On Sunday, Bill L and Terry had to leave early, so they missed this one. The rest of the group, plus a new addition, Robert in SLC or Tabby, got ready to run Hell's Revenge. Look it up on trail guides, it is rated 4 to 4.5 out of 5. :eek First thing, roberts buggy is Sweet!!! Rear view http://img.ph...

My crew-Jeff, Me, son Josh, and Ron http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01891.jpg Those are quads down there. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/wyobuggy/DSC01892.jpg Since things were running well, we ran Bull canyon. This is about where those quads were http://img.photobucket.co...

My internet friend, Kevin Beckey ("WyKev" on other buggy forums) went on a buggy trip to Moab, Utah, recently. He's currently not a Manx Club member, but he has been in the past and will probably be one again. Kev asked me to share the story and pics from the trip, so here ya go! Enjoy. - ...
