call Bill at B&K manufacturing. Hes a club sponsor and in the lastest issue of the Mania. I was just there this morning and I know he has some windshield clamps that you could build a rack on.

Dennis Long, AKA dennis and cathy, built one for his teal buggy using square tubing and the B&K windshield clamps. Worked great.

I hope to do an article on building the rack for a future newsletter you can email me takes longer to gather the materials, only takes about 10 mintues to basicaly build it no welding required.
