The start of my final buggy.

Exciting - Looks like you had concerns the body might fly off in transit.

With that batty paint work does 'GT' stand for Ghost Tourer ?

I have noted the tip of 'shovelling' off the engine !

I can see you need a steering wheel and windscreen - what else is on the list ?

Why the final buggy?

Another build thread  you had better keep this one when done.

A long list of parts Hugh but the postman has done well this week the body is shorter than the chassis chop so busy drilling holes and making plates for the rear of the pan and notches in the chassis so the seats can be set further back to help with the back pain whilst driving.

Nice to see a Baja GT with the original roll over hoop. I know the other buggy guru, (not Manx David!) James Hale took over the manufacturing of these.

Well it's safe to say I'm way behind but tonight I started the rebuild.

Looking good 

Well it's rolling sadly the primer didn't like the cold but I'm just worn out with work home life and my joint condition is starting to effect my job and daily life I just love this buggy I've no idea on the body but looks like it's just going back on big thanks to uncle snoopy as always for his help.

Rome wasn't built in day. I hope your body and challenges don't prevent you getting this unique looking buggy out and about for some meetings this year. Lawson's buggy needs a companion.

Not giving up again Hugh can't believe I started this buggy journey 7 years ago and 3 buggies later working as hard as I can safe to say it won't be on the front cover of Volksworld any time soon.

Well your ace asset is having an Uncle Snoopy as I've yet to encounter a buggy build or break down or malfunction that Snoopy could not resolve to a road legal fun machine.

Well what a journey so far but finally got to the point of priming the body it will be no show winner but just my ugly gt.

I thought bats were a protected species ?

Hope you did a fully bat survey before eradicating them !

Yes Hugh they left the building maybe this could be my excuse for taking to long.
