Re: I Tow'd you I need some Help!

Steve. The Carb Model number should be on the carb, BOCAR I believe was a standard VW Solex version made in Brazil, but with the carb model number (on one side or the other) you should be able to get the carb rebuild kit from any place that sells VW parts in your area or look on a website called th...

France's new Manx Kickout SS build thread.

Vincent, That is a real neat job!!! Does all of that clear the VW wiper assy, or did you fab up a special one for your Buggy's? Did you use their wiring diagram or make up your own? Did you keep a copy of what you did to be able to trouble shoot the wiring just in case? Thanks for all the info and t...

France's new Manx Kickout SS build thread.

Vincent, Yes that helps, and thanks for the info and website. Just a few more questions... The 30 amp breaker is fired by a switch other than the IGN switch or? Where did you mount it on your Berrien Buggy and on either Buggy did you consider using any type of cover or box to help protect it from di...

France's new Manx Kickout SS build thread.

Vincent and France, Everything looks GREAT!!! I do have a few questions, What wiring kit did you use (Mfg) and where did it come from? and how many circuits are in the one you used? Is it the same unit that you used in your Red Buggy? Is there anything that you had to change to make it fit / work, a...

2013 NEW MUST HAVE Off Road Dune Buggy Helmet ... Its the La

Ok, so where do we find an expert(s) to tell us where we stand with this new law? Will they try to enforce it while we are on the street or just off road only, that could make most runs a 50 /50 proposition for a ticket, since we start and end on a street, to get to and from the dirt? What about all...

Where are the Pictures and Info. from the 2012 Lone Pine Run

Ed, Connie and BuggyBob,

Thanks for the explanations, descriptions and pics.

Again it was not a complaint, just trying to find where there was info from the Lone Pine Run.

Thanks for your help and answers to why there was limited Run information being posted,

Fellow Buggy Enthusiasts - I NEED YOUR HELP .....

Brad, Are there any pics of the same items that were taken so that all of us can watch for them and know what we are looking for? How many were at the party? You are right when you said that this was wrong, and I would have said it a bit different and would have been censored!!! Thanks for any help....
